Western Australia

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

This is the first year Western Australia is participating in the national survey. As such, there is only one data point and we cannot assess trends over time.

The Returned to Work Rate in Western Australia for 2012–13 is 87%, a fraction above the national average.

The Current Return to Work Rate in Western Australia was 75%, slightly lower than the national average.

The Returned to Work Rate is the percentage of cases where the worker returned to work at some stage between the time of the lodging their claim and the time of the survey. They may or may not have remained at work.  The Returned to Work Rate is equivalent to the Return to Work Rate recorded in earlier versions of the Monitor.

The Current Return to Work Rate is the percentage of workers who had returned to work and were working at the time of the survey, 7 to 9 months after submitting their claim.   The Current Return to Work Rate is equivalent to the Durable Return to Work Rate reported in earlier versions of the monitor.
