Motor Vehicle Accident Claims while at work
Workers are eligible to make a work accident claim if they’re in a motor vehicle accident while driving under the employer’s instruction. Injured drivers may be covered by both motor vehicle injury compensation and workers’ compensation. Several variables are involved in whether you can claim compensation for your car accident. This is why obtaining legal advice about your rights and options is crucial in this situation.
If your injury occurred in the course of employment, you should be able to make a workers’ compensation claim. It also doesn’t matter whose fault the car accident was as workers’ compensation is a no-fault system. Injuries from worksite vehicles are also eligible for accident injury claims. This includes injuries from forklifts, tractors and loaders.
Common Motor Vehicle Injury Claims
According to Safe Work Australia, work injuries from vehicles made up 5.3% of serious claims in 2021-22. Some of the most common vehicle injuries at work are:
- Upper or Lower Back Injuries: this includes whiplash and spinal cord injuries
- Brain Injuries: whiplash can also cause long-term brain damage
- Hand, finger and thumb injuries
