Injured worker return to work experiences documented
The results of the national Return to Work Survey are now available, with Safe Work Australia publishing two new reports.
This survey is conducted biannually and examines the return to work experiences and outcomes of injured workers, including factors that may have an effect on their return to work.
These experiences are measured against variables such as workplace rehabilitation and employer support.
The Return to Work Summary Report provides a comprehensive summary of the National Return to Work survey responses from 2016.
The Return to Work Headline Measure Report provides a simple overview that includes two key measures taken from the 2016 survey data.
Both reports can be viewed on the Safe Work Australia website.
