If you are injured at work
If you are injured at work you are ENTITLED by law to make a claim for compensation.
Your employer is insured, so
Your employer is required by law to take out insurance cover against staff accidents.
the Insurance co. will pay you
This means that your employer's insurance company will pay your compensation, and not your employer.
First you must report the incident to your employer and follow company procedures.
Secondly, visit your doctor and have the injury recorded and obtain a Workers Compensation Medical Certificate. You will need this before you can lodge the Application for Compensation with WorkCover Compensation Queensland.
The next important step is to seek free legal advice about Queensland Workers Compensation Claims so that you can find out and ensure you claim for everything to which you are entitled.

Injuries at work do happen and your employer has a responsibility to take out insurance to cover such injuries if and when they occur. When you make a claim for Workers Compensation, your employers' insurance company pays the compensation and NOT your employer. Work injury law & compensation claim entitlements can be quite complex so we recommend that you obtain advice from our solicitors for work injury accident claims.
Before you sign anything i.e. a "Notice of Assessment" or "letter of offer" from Work Cover (QLD)" we strongly suggest you seek free legal advice first by calling our helpline on 1300 662 696 or you can complete the free case review and we will get back to you. You may also be entitled to make a 'common law claim' which is why it is advisable to seek advice BEFORE you sign!
In Queensland, if you sign the Notice of Assessement you will be prevented from pursuing a "common law" damages claim that will compensate you for the rest of your working life and is generally worth tens of thousands of dollars more to you in compensation.
In the Northern Territory the law is a little different operating under a "No-Fault Scheme" which means you are entitled to make a claim for compensation regardless of who is at fault. You may claim for the normal benefits but you may also be entitled to a lump sum payment especially if you have a permanent impairment. To find out if you are entitled to a lump sum payment and for free legal advice speak to a Work Injury Lawyer by calling 1300 662 696 or complete the free case review.
In QLD and the NT it is compulsory for employers to hold workers compensation insurance for their employees. So irrespective of the type or extent of injury sustained you should seek free legal advice so you can then immediately lodge an injury accident claim with the Insurance Company used by your employer.
Once your work injury has been assessed you may able be entitled to make a common law claim (QLD) or a claim for a lump sum payment (NT). Be aware that once you receive your Notice of Assessment (from WorkCover - QLD) seek free legal advice from a solicitor by calling 1300 662 696 before you sign.
