Small Business Groups Push for Practical Workers Compensation Reform

Small business groups push for practical workers compensation reform

NSW workers compensation reforms must cut costs and reduce complexity to truly support SMEs, COSBOA warns, urging clear, practical relief measures.

The Council of Small Business Organisations Australia (COSBOA) is urging the NSW Government to ensure that reforms to the state’s workers compensation system deliver relief without adding complexity for small business. The current system is overdue for reform – however, COSBOA warns that unless small business realities are factored in, the changes risk doing more harm than good.
