Reducing premiums
|
Employers can reduce their premium by:
- promoting a safe workplace
- acting early if a worker is injured and ensuring that the worker receives timely income support and necessary treatment
- keeping in touch with injured workers and offering suitable duties to help the worker recover and return to work as soon as possible
- helping the insurer manage claims by quickly notifying the insurer if there is an injury
- participating in the Premium Discount Scheme.
More information on how to create a safe workplace is available from the Occupational Helath and Safety Act 2000 and the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation 2001.
