Welcome

Welcome to our last issue for 2010 of Q-COMP's Health Report, an e-newsletter providing you with important industry news and information about the Queensland workers' compensation scheme.

 

As the new year approaches, we're looking forward to sharing new learning opportunities with you, and asking for your input to help guide development in 2011.

 

Also in this issue we report on what so many of you already know - that working is generally good for your health and wellbeing!

 

In early 2011 you can expect a new-look Health Report - and we'd love to hear your thoughts on anything you'd like to see included.  So be sure to leave us a comment or send us an email.

 

And lastly, a reminder that the Q-COMP offices will be closed from 5pm, Friday 24 December and will reopen on Monday 4 January.

 

From everyone at Q-COMP, we wish you a safe and happy break and look forward to working with you in the new year.
