Notifying WorkCover Queensland about a workplace injury

Under section 133 of the Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003, employers must notify WorkCover Queensland immediately about a workplace injury by completing an Employer’s Report form.

If we do not receive the Employer’s Report form the claim decision process may be delayed, which can have an impact on your claim costs and the rehabilitation and return to work of the injured worker.
