Explanatory Notes

The working rate measure is a combination of two measures: the RTW rate work status and the 'stayed at work rate'. This measure includes workers who have had at least one day off work as well as workers who have not ceased work.

This Metric also allows a comparison by insurer type of workers who are at work at 4, 13 ,26, 52 and 104 week intervals from the date of injury. The figures 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 show the data at 4, 13, 26, 52 and 104 weeks respectively.

The Data is shown above at the 4, 13, 26, 52 and 104 week intervals is for the whole system however using the filters available on the left side of this page changes the breakdown of data at these intervals by the selection made.
