Got an injured worker? Get them healed and back to work FAST and reduce your LTIs...
If you have an employee that has suffered a work-related injury or illness, you may be wondering how to get them back to their normal life and work as soon as possible. You may also be concerned about the impact of their injury on their health, wellbeing, income, and career. That’s why you need a professional and comprehensive injury management service that can help your employees achieve a timely, safe and durable return to work.
Injury management is a process that involves activities and procedures for assisting injured workers with their recovery and rehabilitation. It includes treatment, counselling, retraining, claims management and employment practices. The goal of injury management is to optimise the outcomes for both the worker and the employer by reducing lost time to injury (LTI), the risk of injury recurrence, enhancing productivity and efficiency, improving employee satisfaction and retention, and ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.
Injury management is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It requires a coordinated and integrated effort from various stakeholders, such as the worker, the employer, the insurer, the treating doctor, the rehabilitation provider, and the regulator. Each stakeholder has a role and responsibility in the injury management process, which should be tailored to the specific needs and circumstances of each case.
One of the key elements of effective injury management is early intervention. This means taking prompt and proactive steps in providing priority care to address the injury as soon as it occurs or is reported. Early intervention can prevent further complications, minimise disability and impairment, facilitate recovery and healing, and promote return to work. Early intervention can also reduce the costs and duration of workers compensation claims.
Another key element of effective injury management is workplace rehabilitation. This means providing suitable support and assistance to help injured workers return to their pre-injury or alternative duties as soon as medically possible. Workplace rehabilitation can involve modifying the work environment, equipment, tasks or hours to accommodate the worker’s capacity and limitations. It can also involve providing vocational training or education to help the worker acquire new skills or qualifications for a different role.
Workplace rehabilitation should be based on an individualised return to work plan that outlines the goals, strategies, timeframes and responsibilities for achieving a successful outcome. The return to work plan should be developed in consultation with the worker, the employer, the insurer, the treating doctor and the rehabilitation provider. It should be reviewed and updated regularly to reflect the worker’s progress and any changes in their condition or circumstances.

Early treatment is crucial in reducing Lost Time to Injury (LTI) for several reasons. Firstly, prompt medical intervention can prevent minor injuries from escalating into more severe conditions, potentially minimising the overall impact on an individual's health. Quick access to medical care allows for timely diagnosis and the implementation of appropriate treatment plans, preventing complications that may arise from delayed intervention.
Moreover, early treatment facilitates a faster and more efficient recovery process. By addressing injuries promptly, individuals can often return to work sooner, minimising the duration of lost productive time. This not only benefits the injured employee but also contributes to the overall productivity and efficiency of the workplace.
Additionally, early treatment plays a significant role in preventing chronic conditions or long-term disabilities that may result from untreated or inadequately managed injuries. Timely intervention can reduce the severity and duration of an injury, minimising the likelihood of extended absences from work.
In summary, early treatment is critical in reducing Lost Time to Injury by preventing the escalation of injuries, expediting the recovery process, and minimising the potential long-term impact on both individuals and the productivity of the workplace.
The extent of detail in the Injury Management service is contingent upon the specific nature of the injury.

WorkCover injury claims stand as a vital recourse for employees encountering workplace injuries, designed to provide financial support and compensation. The procedure is initiated by swiftly reporting the injury to the employer, who holds the responsibility of promptly forwarding the details to the WorkCover insurance provider within a stringent 48-hour window. Once the employee receives the claim form, it becomes a comprehensive documentation of the injury, encapsulating crucial details such as the circumstances surrounding it, medical history, and the financial ramifications experienced by the individual.
Upon the completion and submission of the claim form, the subsequent phase involves a thorough examination by the WorkCover insurance provider. The assessment considers various factors, including the severity of the injury, the extent of lost wages, and any additional financial losses incurred. The determined compensation amount is pivotal in addressing the immediate and ongoing impacts of the injury on the individual's life.
Following the approval of the claim, a crucial dialogue is initiated by the insurance provider with the employee. This phase involves discussions on the specifics of the claim, further arrangements for the disbursement of compensation, and the potential entitlement to additional benefits such as medical expenses or rehabilitation services.
Navigating the complexities of WorkCover claims demands attention to detail and an understanding of the multifaceted aspects involved.
Persona Health recognises this and seeks to streamline the process through our dedicated Injury Management service. By entrusting us with the intricacies of WorkCover claims, individuals can navigate the system with confidence, ensuring they receive the compensation and support rightfully due to them.
