Answering all your frequently asked questions

What is Workers Compensation Insurance?
Workers Compensation Insurance is a type of insurance that provides monetary compensation to employees who are injured or become ill due to their work. This includes fatalities, permanent disabilities, temporary disabilities and medical expenses. Workers Compensation Insurance gives businesses peace of mind knowing they can provide for their workers in the event of an emergency. In Australia, the law requires employers to provide workers compensation for injuries sustained from work. The worker can claim against the employer if they are injured on the job or suffer an occupational disease. Workers compensation also covers medical expenses and some lost wages in order to help with recovery after an injury or illness. This process ensures that there is no need for litigation between the worker and employer. The system protects both employers and employees so that neither has to pay out of pocket costs when something goes wrong at work or on the job site.
Do I need to get Workers Compensation Insurance?
The Australian government and Australian Capital Territory has made it mandatory for all employers to have workers compensation insurance. Employers without this insurance policy can be fined $50,000 and face time in prison. If you are unsure whether or not your company needs this type of coverage, our helpful Insuranet brokers can clarify your obligations as an employer.
Who does Workers Compensation Cover?
Insuranet’s workers’ compensation insurance can cover workers employed by a business or company. This includes those employed full-time, part-time or casually.

How much is Workers Compensation Insurance?
Every workplace is unique, and the price of workers compensation may differ depending on several factors. These factors include the size of your business, the number of employees, the hours they work, and the location of your business.
