Workplace Injury / Workcover

Yes. If you incur an injury while you’re working temporarily in another location including interstate or overseas, you may be covered by WorkCover Queensland.

This is only if you were working at the time or doing a company organised activity.

The same goes for if you’re required to work from home. Read some of our work from home safety tips here.
