WorkCover Queensland has received multiple awards for its excellence in managing serious injuries, particularly its involvement in return-to-work programs for victims of traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries.
The award recognises Sandra Hennessy, a WorkCover customer advisor who has managed or assisted in supporting these workers.
WorkCover has also completed a four-year, award-winning redesign of the organisation’s digital services to improve its services for appropriate stakeholders, which earned the organisation a win in the digital innovation category.
Further, WorkCover customer manager, Teegan Jordan, has earned a finalist status in the emerging leader category for her leadership managing a portfolio of claims.
The awards were presented by the provider of training programs and events Personal Injury and Education Foundation (PIEF) in Adelaide.
