Partnerships for recovery 
In August 2002, McKinsey & Company was engaged by WorkCover to review the workers compensation Scheme in NSW and recommend how best to improve the underwriting and insurance arrangements.

The recommendations, outlined in Partnerships for Recovery: Caring for injured workers and restoring financial stability to workers compensation in NSW, are founded upon the implementation of the following initiatives:

  • commit to, and improve, the current Scheme structure
  • match the right firms to claims and asset management activities
  • increase competition and performance transparency in the Scheme
  • create a stronger WorkCover to perform an expanded role
  • design and implement a Scheme-wide IT solution
  • develop improved remuneration arrangements that provide better performance incentives
  • ensure sufficient claims managers for the Scheme.
