compensation is costly and complex for employers.It is also
extremely high risk. If an employer is not properly insured,
they can be personally liable for several hundred thousand
dollars in penalties. So its not something to be unsure
about. Each year Workcover prosecutes hundreds of employers
for failing to take out correct insurance, or for other
breaches of workers compensation laws.
