If the unfortunate event happened where AusRehab had to shut down and we were forced to find another provider, the bar is going be set really high.

Workplace rehabilitation is a structured process an injured worker undergoes to return to work safely and efficiently through medical, psychological, and workplace support. This may require guidance from allied health experts such as occupational therapists, physiotherapists, exercise physiologists, psychologists and social workers. For a more in-depth understanding, see our comprehensive guide to workplace rehabilitation.
A workplace rehab provider assists both injured workers and employers with the return to work process, by developing treatment plans, providing regular updates, and engaging with the company’s return to work programs. The goal of rehab providers is to support the worker’s recovery while ensuring they can perform their duties effectively and without risk of further injury. Our blog article discusses this in more detail: Workplace Rehabilitation Providers: What Exactly Do They Do?
The duration of workplace rehabilitation varies based on the severity of the injury and individual recovery rates, ranging from a few weeks to several months. As clients work through their tailored recovery plan and their progress is monitored, their return to work timeline is adjusted as needed.
While everyone’s recovery journey is uniquely different, refer to our blog article for an overview of what to expect: The 8 Steps of the Work Rehabilitation Process. Typically, a work rehab provider is appointed if the employee has not recovered from the workplace injury within 2 weeks. Engaging a rehab provider in a timely manner reduces time loss and prevents a delayed return to work.
Annual leave can be taken during workers compensation in New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia. In most states, employees get paid for both the annual leave and workers compensation. In New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia annual leave will accrue during workers compensation if the employee would have otherwise been entitled to the accrual had they not been on workers compensation.
Choosing a workplace rehabilitation provider provider is an important decision. It’s essential to select a provider that best meets the needs of the worker and supports a safe, effective recovery and return to work.
Choosing the right work rehab provider ensures your rehabilitation needs are met. To switch your rehab provider, your insurer needs documentation explaining the reasons for the new choice. After sending this to the insurer, share a copy of the documentation with your employer and AusRehab. Our team will then contact the insurer. If the insurer doesn’t approve the change, you can raise the issue with SafeWork NSW at 13 10 50.
An Ernst & Young study has shown that timely appointment of a work rehab provider not only improves Return to Work (RTW) outcomes, but also significantly reduces claims costs. This means a reduction in time loss, productivity loss and employee turnover rate.
An injured worker’s recovery process is continuously monitored and managed by a dedicated support team. This team consists of the worker’s employer, the insurer, the nominated treating doctor (NTD), allied health professionals, and the workplace rehabilitation provider. This team coordinates efforts to assess the worker’s health and capacity for work, ensuring a smooth recovery and return to work.
