In Victoria, if you are injured in the course of your employment, you may have an entitlement to compensation under the WorkCover Scheme, regardless of who or what caused the accident.

These entitlements may include:

  • The cost of medical and like services required to treat your injuries or illness;
  • Weekly payments to compensate you for loss of earnings;
    In some cases, a lump sum of compensation depending on the nature and extent of your injury.
