WHEN workers are injured and their employer discourages them from accessing the insurance that is available through WorkCover, this amounts to another form of wage theft because it results in the worker paying for their time off work and medical treatment, and robs them of potential lump sums for their injuries.
Nevin Lenne and Gross can provide advice to you about the process to making a workers compensation claim to ensure that if you have been injured at work that you don’t effectively take on the burden of your injury on your own.
Nevin Lenne and Gross principal lawyer, Helen Collins said, “If you are injured at work we encourage you to touch base with us to find out what your entitlements are and let us help you to demystify what the process is about.
“This is an insurance that your employers are paying for and we can help you find out what your benefits are.”
