WorkCover records data on Section 42, 43 and 44 payments made. The information you provide is entered onto our database and is used:
- for statistical purposes
- as the basis for historical information (when requests are made for notification of previous lump sum amounts paid to a worker)
- to reconcile payment data reported on individual claims.
Our
lump sum calculations information sheet will assist you in correctly advising us of payments made to workers under Sections 42, 43 and 44 of the Workers Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 1986.
