Returning To Work After An Injury In Queensland

Get Back To Work Safely, On The Right Terms

Your employer may offer modified or lighter duties that fit your doctor’s restrictions.

We’ll check that any duties offered match your doctor’s advice.

We’ll review the plan with you & raise concerns before they become problems.

If You Can't Go Back To Your Old Job

Some injuries mean returning to your previous role isn’t possible.

We’ll explain your options, including retraining support & a possible common law claim.

Raise Concerns Early

Problems with your return to work can affect your weekly payments & recovery.

Request Your Free Case Review, & a senior lawyer will reach you within 24 hours to talk through your situation and the time limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I Have To Return To Work After A WorkCover Claim?

If your doctor says you’re fit for suitable duties, you’re generally expected to take part in a return to work plan.

What If My Employer Has No Suitable Duties?

You may continue receiving weekly payments while you remain unfit for your usual role. We can explain how this applies to you.

Will My Payments Stop When I Go Back To Work?

Not always. If you return on reduced hours, you may still receive partial weekly payments.

What If The Duties Make My Injury Worse?

Tell your doctor & employer straight away. Your plan may need to change, and we can help you raise it.

Can I Return To A Different Job?

Possibly. Retraining or support to find suitable work may be available if you can’t return to your old role.

Can I Still Make A Common Law Claim If I Return To Work?

Possibly. Returning to work doesn’t necessarily rule out a common law claim, especially if your earning capacity is affected.

Do I Need A Lawyer For Return To Work Issues?

Not always, but advice can help when duties, payments or your future work are uncertain.

Do You Offer "No Win, No Fee" For WorkCover Claims?

Yes. Rin Kim Law provides No Win, No Fee services for eligible WorkCover claims. We’ll explain the terms & eligibility before you decide whether to proceed.
