Injury management 
Injury management is about ensuring the prompt, safe and durable return to work of an injured worker. It includes:
  • treatment of the injury
  • rehabilitation back to work
  • retraining into a new skill or new job
  • management of the workers compensation claim
  • the employment practices of the employer. 
Everyone involved is required to cooperate and participate in injury management, including the employer, injured worker, insurer, treating doctor and all treating practitioners.
