Statutory claims

A 'no fault' workers compensation scheme means that Queensland workers have the right to apply for statutory benefits, no matter who or what caused their workplace injury.

Common law claims

The common law system in Queensland means that workers may be able to seek compensation through the courts if their employer was at fault for their workplace injury.
