Queensland workers compensation rate reform eyed by officials
The Insurance Commissioner may offer a 74 percent premium discount subject to wage returns and prompt payments, replacing the former 5 percent cut. The Treasurer plans to revise rates for high risk occupations, aiming for equitable charges, with some increases for high claim areas and reductions for lower risk sectors. The Taxpayers’ Association supports reforms to ensure each risk pays its own way and urges a swift, fair conclusion.
