Assessors details
SIRA maintains a list of permanent impairment assessors that work in the NSW workers compensation system. SIRA does not appoint, approve, or otherwise endorse these permanent impairment assessors. It is a matter for individual workers, referrers, and their representatives to review the list and identify the assessor they consider most appropriate based on their own individual circumstances. A practitioners registration details on the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (Ahpra) website may assist in informing their selection.
