You may have recently seen the advertising campaign for WorkSafe on TV.

I have provided a link to the website: http://www.workcover.vic.gov.au/worksafe/msi_09

Just click on "Watch the TV Ads" at the bottom of the page that opens to watch a 45 second video.

Please be aware that Workers Compensation will only cover you for accidents or injuries that occur during working hours or for an illness that is a direct result of your employment. And if your illness or injury is covered by Workers Compensation be aware that the full benefit period is capped in weeks and by the type of incident that occurs. For example, in NSW it is 26 weeks.

While we can't always prevent workplace accidents, using insurance we can protect you, your lifestyle and your loved ones from the financial impact that such events bring.
