Insurance + Risk Services

Workers Compensation Insurance is compulsory for almost all employers in Australia. If one of your employees is injured or falls ill in the course of their work, Workers Compensation Insurance can assist by covering medical and rehabilitation expenses, in addition to loss of income. This cover aims to support injured workers in their recovery and return to work, helping negate the impact on your work environment.

Workers Compensation in Australia can be complex however, as it is governed by differing state-based legislation. Varying legislative requirements across Australia make it difficult to understand employer responsibilities and manage claims.

EngInsure advisers have a wealth of experience in dealing with the complexities presented by Workers Compensation Insurance, and can help you navigate the challenges to support your business and employees in the event of a claim.

Our advisers can assist with:

• Placement of policies in WA, TAS, NT, ACT 
• Development of risk management programs designed specifically to reduce risk in your surrounding work environment
• Reduction in the cost of claims
• Strategies to improve employee well being
