It’s no secret that claiming workers compensation can be a complicated process, and some Aussie workers are not educated enough on this topic. WorkCover legislation allows workers to claim lump sum compensation, but there are different types of lump sum payments available and some VIC Residents may be missing out on $1,000s in compensation.
We asked everyday Aussies who went through the compensation process, after a work accident, why they believe people are not claiming all the money to which they are entitled. A perceived complexity of the process, as well as a lack of knowledge around the level of compensation payable for certain serious accident types were identified as the main reasons.

“There were 2 sides to this problem” says Lee Bush, a senior member of the Claim Maximiser team. “The first was the confusion and lack of knowledge surrounding the personal compensation claims process. The other was simply lazy people. Even when they could potentially receive a significant amount of money, people may be too lazy to put the effort in to find out if they may be eligible for compensation. Our qualification process is based on personalisation & data. You will be asked for basic details such as name and injury type, and then we check in our system if you may be entitled to a range of compensation benefits. Quick & Simple”.
