You have a WorkCover claim. You're wondering: what does it actually cover?
Most people think WorkCover covers medical costs and time off work. It does. But it can also include:
- Weekly payments while unable to work
- Rehabilitation and return-to-work support
- Household services if the injury prevents normal activities
- Lump sum compensation for permanent impairment
- Common law damages in some circumstances
The gap between what's available and what people know to claim is significant.
