What is WorkCover Queensland?

WorkCover Queensland is the insurer of most employers in Queensland. Some employers are larger and have their own insurance. Whether your employer is self-insured, or insured by WorkCover Queensland the same rules, procedures and benefits apply. 

WorkCover and self-insurers are there as an insurer for any workers’ compensation claims brought by employees. If you were injured or have sustained an illness at or because of work, you may have a valid workers’ compensation claim against WorkCover.

It is not uncommon to hesitate bringing a workers’ compensation claim for fear of offending the employer. In reality though, they have insurance with WorkCover and the claims process is largely handled by WorkCover.
