Introduction
The Heads of Workers’ Compensation Authorities (HWCA) endorsed a nationally consistent framework for the approval of workplace rehabilitation providers in June 2008. The details of the approval framework are contained in the HWCA document “Guide: Nationally Consistent Approval Framework for Workplace Rehabilitation Providers”.
Organisations should ensure they fully understand the framework contained in the Guide prior to making an application to become a workplace rehabilitation provider.
If the application is successful, an Instrument of Approval as a workplace rehabilitation provider will be issued for a 3-year period, until 30th June of the third year.
