What is WorkCover's role in the common law process?


If you are covered for the common law claim, we will manage the claim. We will be responsible for all communication with the injured worker and their solicitors, and will appear on your behalf at settlement conferences and court proceedings. We will pay for any damages that we consider the injured worker is entitled to receive, together with any legal or investigation costs that we incur.
