Compensation Schemes
We advocate across Australian workers compensations and transport accident schemes to advance the recognition, remuneration and conditions of OTs and address known issues affecting OTs and the people they support.
Member Priorities
Our members want compensation schemes that offer:
- Fair remuneration for OT services and travel
- Recognition of the critical role OTs play in supporting individuals that have been injured at work or in a transport accident, and the unique skills OTs bring to assessment and treatment
- Recognition and fair remuneration for advanced qualifications and experience
- The opportunity to work within the full OT scope of practice, such as issuing certificates of capacity
- Streamlined administrative processes
Our Advocacy
We actively advocate to resolve issues raised by our members
- We engage with regulatory agencies across the various schemes, to raise the profile of OTs and advocate for fair remuneration and conditions
- We provide feedback to inform inquiries and reviews, incorporating feedback from our members.
How you can help
We welcome feedback about your experiences working under compensation schemes and your ideas about how these services can be improved.
We will take your feedback to the government and key stakeholders to advocate for better outcomes for OTs, and the people you support.
