Say No To Cuts To Workers Compensation Rally

Say No To Cuts To Workers Compensation Rally

Barry O'Farrell's plan to attack Workers Compensation in NSW affects YOU!

Accidents happen. We can all get hurt to or from work or at work. Under the current scheme should you get hurt at work you will be paid until you are better.

Any medical bills arising from your injuries are covered.

This will change.

Under Barry O'Farrell's proposed changes to Workers Compensation:

• Your pay will drop while you are recovering

• If you cannot recover quickly enough, weekly payments and medical bills will be cut off.

• You will not be covered for any injuries that occurred TO & FROM work.

The only people these changes will help are the insurance companies.

Workers Compensation protects workers against accidents and injuries - O'Farrell's changes will risk worker's incomes, recovery and their families finances.

We all deserve a system that will protect us against freak accidents or injuries at work or to & from work.

Join the fight to stop the changes that will affect ALL OF US.
