Return to work results > What duties did people go back to

Continuity of employer and duties refers to injured workers who had returned to work at the same employer and carried out the same duties as prior to their injury

Of those who had returned to work, more than 70% of injured QLD workers were working for the same employer and doing the same duties at the time of interview. Around 15% had returned to the same employer but with different duties, while the remaining few had moved to a different employer, with either the same or different duties.

The proportion of employees returning to the same duties with the same employer increased by more than 10% in the last twelve months, with corresponding reductions in employees returning to different employer / different duties and same employer / different duties.
