Print this Topic Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Injured workers who had returned to work, but were no longer working at the time of the interview were asked to estimate how long they had been back at work before they stopped.

 

The length of non-durable RTW in Queensland employees has continued to decline steadily since 2008-09, despite a pickup in the national average for 2011-12. Queensland workers with a non-durable RTW are now back at work for an average of 64 days versus the national average of 75 days.

 

Question:  How long were you back at work before you stopped?
