In Qld it is expected, unless exempt, that you will have Workers Compensation insurance, this is through Worksafe Qld Workcover Queensland, or private insurance, including the self insured business. We investigate, where Workcover fraud, workers compensation insurance claim fraud, is suspected, and the insurer will not engage. It is a quirk of workers compensation insurance that, once a claim is accepted, the injured worker is the focus. This works well when the claim, the worker, are honest.
WorkCover fraud, Workers Compensation claim fraud, is a drain on the business. People do get injured at work, they do make honest claims, they do engage in return to work activities, they recover. This is WorkCover insurance being used correctly. We are not involved in those matters. Generally, where a suspect Workers Compensation claim is made, where WorkCover fraud is suspected, we become involved. A private investigator investigation is the method y which evidence is obtained, to establish fraud, deception, is occurring; this evidence can be presented to the insurers fraud section, to enable them to take further actions.
We investigate suspected Workers Compensation fraud as, once a claim is accepted, the insurer becomes a rehabilitation coordinator, with the injured worker as the client, no matter who is paying the insurance bill. The onus is on the employer, at that time, to prove the Workers Compensation fraud. A Hendra private investigator, usually using private investigator surveillance, is employed to investigate, to get the evidence to protect the employer, and move the insurer.
Indications of Workers Compensation fraud
Indications of Workers Compensation fraud, WorkCover fraud, include a claim that was shaky from the start, the morphing claim, the doctor shopper, the worker who fails to engage, or suffers another injury during return to work, when other information comes to employer about the workers current capacity, or the illogical long term claim. These are the ones we investigate.
We do not investigate legitimate claims, generally. These are claims where the the injury is logical, the injury is visible, the worker is honest, and you can see them striving to get better, to return to work. These workers engage with the business, and the employer engages with them.
There can be a lot of frustration involved in fraudulent WorkCover claims, WorkCover fraud. Once the claim is accepted the worker becomes the focus of the insurer, who become a rehabilitation coordinator, with the injured worker as the client, no matter who pays the insurance. The insurers hands are tied, at this point, and the onus falls back on the employer to 'prove' that there is fraud.
Just having a suspicion is insufficient, you must establish reasonable suspicion. That means evidence, or strong indications. Social media posts are generally not considered strong evidence. A period of surveillance is generally used, to protect the employer, the business, from fraud.
Workers Compensation Surveillance
Workers Compensation surveillance is used as a discreet way to compare real world restrictions, and capacities, with claimed restrictions, and capacities. It is designed to be non-intrusive, and not revealed until necessary for court. It is the favoured way of gathering evidence of Workers Compensation fraud, to protect the employer, the business.
We are often used to establish that the worker is recovering, that the claim is exaggerated, that they are setting themselves up in another business, or trying to milk the claim. This is often done by conducting WorkCover surveillance, to gather evidence.
