What is Workers Compensation Insurance?

Workers compensation insurance is there to protect you and your crew if someone gets injured or falls ill because of work. It helps cover medical bills and part of their wages while they’re recovering. If something more serious happens, like a work-related death, it also supports the worker’s family.

It’s not just about looking after your staff; it protects your business too. Having this insurance can save you from costly legal dramas and keep things ticking over while your team gets back on its feet.

How Does Workers Compensation Insurance Work?

If someone on your team gets hurt at work, they report it to you, and you lodge a claim with your insurer. From there, the insurance helps cover their medical costs and part of their pay while they’re off work. It’s a win-win – your employee gets support while they recover, and your business stays protected without needing to deal with lawsuits or long delays.

What’s Included in Workers Compensation Insurance?

Workers compensation insurance offers solid coverage when it comes to covering the basics. Here’s what’s usually in the mix:

  • All your employees – including casuals, temps, apprentices and trainees. Some contractors might be covered too, depending on the rules in your state or territory.
  • Wages – if an injured worker can’t do their job, the insurance helps cover part of their lost income.
  • Medical and rehab costs – from GP visits to physio and everything in between to help them get back on the job.

Just a heads-up: this type of insurance doesn’t cover sole traders or business partners. You’ll need a separate cover for that.

Who Needs Workers Compensation Insurance?

If you’ve got people working for you, whether full-time, part-time or casual, you need workers compensation insurance. Here’s why it matters:

  • All businesses with staff – it’s not optional, it’s the law.
  • High-risk industries – like construction or manufacturing, where accidents are more likely.
  • Small businesses – one claim could put a serious dent in your finances if you’re not covered.
  • Companies using contractors – depending on where you’re based, you might need to cover some contractors too.

It’s all about protecting your people and your business and making sure everyone’s looked after if something goes wrong.
