Work Injury Damages Claims
Injured in the last 30 years? Then the Australian Government has preserved your right to bring a claim for work injury (psychological or psychiatric) damages, provided you’ve suffered an injury that is assessed at 15% (or more) of what is termed ‘Whole Person Impairment’.
If you are a pre-1988 Officer, there is no threshold.
