INFORMATION FOR EMPLOYERS AND RETURN TO WORK COORDINATORS (RTWC)
GETTING YOUR INJURED WORKER BACK TO WORK:
• You must commence planning your worker’s return to work as soon as you receive their claim for weekly payments or
WorkSafe Certificate of Capacity (medical certificate), even if they do not have a current capacity for work.
• Planning involves obtaining relevant information about your worker’s capacity for work and considering reasonable
workplace support, aids or modifications. It also involves assessing and proposing suitable employment options, and
consulting with your worker, their medical practitioner or healthcare provider and occupational rehabilitation provider (if one
is involved).
• If you need assistance with return to work planning or assessing suitable employment options, contact your Agent
immediately. Your Agent may approve the use of an Occupational Rehabilitation provider to help you.
• Send the proposed suitable or pre-injury employment options to the worker’s medical practitioner or healthcare provider.
This will help them understand the availability of suitable employment, and inform them when making an assessment of the
worker’s capacity for work.
• WorkSafe’s Return to Work Proposal template may assist you to communicate these suitable or pre-injury employment
options to the medical practitioner or healthcare provider.
• Ideally a return to work proposal would be signed by all parties to indicate their support, however it is not mandatory.
• You must provide your worker with clear, accurate and current details of their return to work arrangements, and regularly
review and update these as your worker’s condition will change over time.
• When your worker has some capacity for work, you have a legal obligation to provide them with suitable employment. When
they no longer have an incapacity for work, your legal obligation is to provide them with their pre-injury employment.
Employers who do not meet these obligations risk penalties, including fines and prosecutions in the courts.

CALCULATING ENTITLEMENT TO WEEKLY PAYMENTS
Weekly payments are calculated based on the worker’s pre-injury average weekly earnings (PIAWE) for the 52 weeks before
their injury. If they have been employed by you for less than 52 weeks, their average weekly earnings for the period of
employment are used.
What you need to provide about your worker’s earnings
So that the Agent can calculate the worker’s PIAWE, you will need to provide details of any of the following payments that you
have made to the worker in the 52 weeks before the injury (or if the period of employment was less than 52 weeks, in the
period of actual employment).
• Worker’s base rate of pay
• Overtime and shift allowances paid
• Piece rates, tally bonuses and commissions paid
• Non-pecuniary benefits including residential accommodation, use of a motor vehicle, payment of health insurance or
payment of education fees
• Any salary sacrifice arrangements
You will also need to tell the Agent of any promotion or voluntary demotion of the worker in the 52 week period before the
injury. If your worker’s earnings include any of the items listed above, and are not captured in part 6 of this form you can
complete the Calculating Pre-Injury Average Weekly Earnings form that is available on the WorkSafe website,
worksafe.vic.gov.au
to ensure you have provided all the worker’s earnings details.
