Webinar: Secondary Mental Injuries - Prevention and Support

Did you know that if one of your workers is physically injured at work, there may be a risk of them developing a secondary mental injury? This can arise as a result of the original event or as a result of the impact of the physical injury on their life. For some workers, it’s the recovery from the mental injury, rather than the physical one, that extends recovery and delays getting back.

Join WorkCover Queensland's Manager of Mental Injuries, Michelle Turton, as she welcomes guest presenter Tatjana Jokic, Registered Psychologist and Managing Director of JK Corporate Resourcing, to explore secondary mental injuries in workers compensation.

Michelle and Tatjana will discuss ways employers can collaborate with WorkCover Queensland and the treating providers on a claim, to proactively identify and support at-risk workers, and ideally prevent them from developing a secondary mental injury.

You may submit questions for consideration when you register.

Please note, the information shared by WorkCover Queensland and Tatjana Jokic during the webinar is generic and should not be considered as legal or medical advice.

The webinar will be recorded if you're unable to join us on Monday, 23 October. Please register as an attendee and we will send you a copy after the event.
