Survey about work related injury


View Online



Do you have a work-related injury or illness or were you injured, travelling to or from work? 

Or are you a family member or workmate of someone who has had such an ordeal?

We want to hear from you. Complete this survey and give us insight into your personal experiences of the NSW Workers Compensation system.

As a result of the NSW O’Farrell Government’s changes to Workers Compensation in June 2012 those with workplace injuries and illnesses, and their families, have been dealt a tremendous blow to their rights and entitlements. In most cases, injured and ill workers will have their entitlements reduced, or scrapped altogether.

For more information on the workers compensation changes go towww.nswforall.org.au.

Workers Compensation is one of the most important rights that belong to working people. It was a right that was fought for and won by the union movement and workers. It is meant to ensure that someone who is injured or ill as a result of their work is properly and decently cared for.

The NSW O’Farrell Government’s changes are a direct attack on fair treatment and respect for all workers and their families.

By completing this survey you will help us assess the consequences of the Workers Compensation changes one year after they were introduced. The survey should take between 3 and 10 minutes to complete, depending on your circumstances. 

Thank you,

Emma Maiden
Deputy Assistant Secretary
