Monday marked the 1 year anniversary of the disastrous changes to the Victorian WorkCover scheme.
These changes make it harder for workers to get the help they need to get better and go back to work. Injured workers now have less access to ongoing support for mental injuries and are more likely to be kicked off the scheme at 130 weeks if they don't meet strict criteria.
These changes are unfair. They punish injured workers.
We want to understand how changes to WorkCover are affecting you. Have you, or someone you know, been injured at work? Did WorkCover help with recovery?
Injured workers deserve dignity and respect.
Your story will be part of the campaign to fight back against these changes. Help us make change by showing the real impact of the changes to WorkCover .
We understand the challenges injured workers face, and we’re committed to keeping these survey results private and confidential. We will not share them without your explicit consent.
P.S. Are you an injured worker who wants to work with other injured workers to make WorkCover better? Join our Injured Worker Support Network here.
