Welcome

Welcome to our eleventh issue of Q-COMP Health Report, an e-newsletter providing you with all the latest industry news and essential updates for allied health providers in the Queensland workers' compensation scheme.

 

In this issue we introduce our Return to work journey podcasts. The series follows three important players in the return to work journey; a worker, rehabilitation and return to work coordinator and treating doctor. You can use these podcasts to inform your clients and managers about what is expected if an injury occurs. Visit our Return to work zone to see these podcasts.

 

Nominations are now open for our Return to work awards 2010.


With four award categories for injured workers, employers, case managers and rehabilitation and return to work coordinators, our awards encourage recognition of everyone who goes above and beyond.


Be sure to nominate a deserving colleague or client for a Return to work Award.
