Workplace Injury Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2013 (Vic)

Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2024

This bill reforms Queensland's workers' compensation scheme based on a five-yearly independent review. It strengthens rehabilitation and return-to-work requirements, expands cancer coverage for firefighters, creates faster weekly payments for injured workers, introduces new enforcement tools, and lays groundwork for future gig worker coverage. It also increases flexible parental leave and adds superannuation as a Queensland employment standard.
