Notes: These high cost claims are those most likely to have a significant impact on premiums. The report directs attention to the Return-to-Work Plan (RTWP) status for each claim. Where the status is C - Closed or N - No RTWP registered for claim, agencies may consider developing a RTWP in an endeavour to reduce further incapacity and resultant costs.
The report includes claims data relating to an agency's current employees. In some cases, liability for specific claims may rest with a former or other employer. This report also includes pre-premium claims.
