Injured workers’ entitlements are under threat due to the State Government’s proposed changes to WorkCover legislation.

The proposed changes will see:

• Payments to Injured workers cut after 13 weeks to 80 percent of their average weekly earnings.

• Weekly payments discontinued altogether after two and half years following injury.

• If an injured worker decides to dispute their claim, they will receive no payments during this time.

• Reduced compensation for loss of a limb or body function at the discretion of WorkCover.

Show your support for injured workers.

Add your details to ANF’s petition to stop these changes going ahead.

The Protect the Welfare of Injured Workers petition to Nurses, Midwives & PCA'S was written by ANMF (SA Branch) and is in the category Law Reform at GoPetition.
