Employers are responsible for ensuring the workplace is safe and that you obtain workers compensation insurance to protect your employees and the business should they sustain an injury at work or become ill from their work.
Workers Compensation Insurance is a type of insurance that is managed under state-based legislation that assists employees who sustain an injury at work or become sick due to their work. This can include wage compensation and medical costs.
The insurance schemes and their regulations vary and are administered differently between states. If you would like more information about the insurance scheme and conditions for your state, please contact EBM or your Workers Compensation State Authority listed on the SafeWork Australia website.
Workers compensation premiums are often one of the largest components of an organisation’s total insurance costs. EBM’s experienced and professional Account Managers have an intimate understanding of each jurisdiction, including the key factors driving premium costs.
