WorkSafe 2: Follow-up investigation into the management of complex workers compensation claims

[@twotwinningcavs]

During COVID in 2020 I didn’t have a case manager for 11 months and Ive been on Allianz’s books since 2004. The insurance companies want one of two outcomes; 1 for the injured workers to just walk away or 2 for the injured worker to take their own life because either way they are no longer the insurers problem.

Yes, it's a nasty system you learn as you go along. I believed they where there to help with my condition. Nope. They are there to get an IME to return you to work ASAP, all working in collaboration with one another. Last thing one needs in a genuine situation.

It also demonstrates a systemic problem with the current model of claims management for complex claims, and insufficient oversight and review mechanisms. *Case Study:* Senior Bridge Inspection Officer and Public Officer e61028 seriously injured in active duties (physically/mentally, financially/emotionally) Site Location: BRG 4251 - Fourteen Mile Brook Road Hotham River, Wandering 6308 in the state of Western Australia, AUSTRALIA *Occupational Safety and Health Act 1984* 23K.

the process is very complicated and you get sick of being on hold for 40 minutes only to by shuffled around i believe it is deliberately designed like that

Nothing changes if nothing changes Why are workers being punished ? Why isnt our pay intitled to pay increases to keep in line with inflation ??? I know i did nothing wrong i reported to my team leader and acting surpervisor i was hurting and got told "suck it up you’ll be right princess" So can someone please explain to me why its apparently ok for me to have to live in pain for probably the rest of my life and why am i being basically forced into bankruptcy??? And why arent employers being made to let ppl back to work if they have some capacity even after 52weeks ??? I am still employed with them after all This whole system needs a huge over haul. So much for having our backs aye
