Your Criminal Law Questions, Answered by Melbourne’s Defence Experts
WorkCover is a workers’ compensation scheme that provides financial and medical support to employees injured at work. This includes covering medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and lost wages.
Our expert WorkCover lawyers ensure you receive every benefit you’re entitled to.
Yes, you can claim WorkCover for repetitive strain injuries, long-term illness (like stress or respiratory issues), and other conditions caused by ongoing work duties.
We help establish the link between your work and injury to secure compensation.
If your payments are stopped or reduced unexpectedly, you have the right to challenge this decision.
Our legal team will assess the situation, gather evidence, and negotiate with insurers to reinstate your entitlements.
Can I claim WorkCover if I’m partially at fault for my injury?
Yes, WorkCover is a no-fault scheme, which means you can still claim compensation even if you contributed to your injury. Our WorkCover lawyers can clarify your rights and ensure your claim progresses smoothly.
What should I do if my employer refuses to report my injury?
If your employer fails to report your injury, you can lodge a claim directly with WorkSafe or your employer’s insurer. We’ll help you navigate the process to avoid further delays and ensure your claim is lodged correctly.
Am I eligible for WorkCover if I’m a casual or part-time worker?
Yes, all employees — including casual, part-time, and seasonal workers — are covered by WorkCover. If you’ve been injured at work, our lawyers will ensure you access your entitlements without delay.
Can I pursue WorkCover if I’ve aggravated a pre-existing condition?
Yes, if your work activities have worsened a pre-existing injury or condition, you are eligible for WorkCover. Proving aggravation requires solid evidence, and we’re here to build a strong case on your behalf.
What rights do I have if my employer pressures me to return to work early?
It’s illegal for an employer to pressure you to return before you’re medically fit. If you feel unsafe or unsupported, our WorkCover lawyers will advocate for your rights and ensure your recovery remains the top priority.
How do I appeal a WorkCover insurer’s decision?
If your claim is denied, payments reduced, or treatment rejected, you can appeal the decision through WorkSafe or conciliation. Our legal team specialises in challenging these outcomes to secure the support you need.
Can I claim compensation if I develop a mental health condition from work?
Yes, psychological conditions caused by work — like anxiety, depression, or PTSD — are covered under WorkCover. Our team will guide you through the evidence needed to prove your case and access treatment options.
What happens if I can’t return to my previous job due to my injury?
If your injury prevents you from resuming your prior role, WorkCover may provide vocational rehabilitation and retraining. We’ll ensure your ongoing entitlements, including financial support, are safeguarded as you transition into a new role.
