Requesting an independent review of a decision

We understand that sometimes decisions that are made may not seem right, which is why it is important that we hear from you so we can understand and review what has happened.

Before starting your application

Before you start your application, we recommend that you read the page 'what you need to know about a Workers Compensation Independent Review'. This page will offer you information about what we can and can’t review and other useful information to assist you through a review.

If you aren't quite sure if you can ask for a review, please reach out to our service on 03 4243 7061 or email [email protected].

You can request an independent review through the following channels:

  1. Digital form
  2. PDF application form
