On Thursday last week I attended the Return to Work (RTW) Forum conducted by the Insurance Work and Health Group at Monash University. Prof Alex Collie was the principle presenter. The research presented included two studies about Tasmania’s workers compensation system.
Most interestedly the evaluation of what is known as the Return to Work & Injury Management Model suggested that it has not achieved its objective of improving RTW rates.
For more information read my article summarising the research presented from a Tasmanian perspective. See link below.
