Learn how DXC can support you through your recovery

As a specialist provider of workers compensation services, we understand your needs and obligations. Our priority is to ensure your claim is managed to the highest standard.

The below information is available to support you through the various phases of the injury management process.

Making a claim for a workplace injury

If you're injured at work, it's important to tell your employer immediately. They should provide first aid if it's appropriate, and help you seek medical treatment.

Your employer must notify their claims service provider of the injury or significant illness within 48 hours.

In the event that your employer hasn't notified their claims service provider of your injury, you or your representative (eg. family member, doctor) may notify them on your behalf. If you have any questions or are unsure which claims service provider to lodge your claim with, you or your representative can contact us or ask your employer.

If you've had time off work and/or medical treatment, we will contact you, your employer, and if necessary, your doctor to determine how best to support your recovery.

The following information is required when you notify DXC of an injury:

  • your name, address, contact telephone number and date of birth
  • name and address of the company where you work
  • date and time of the injury and description of the injury and details of how it happened
  • name and contact details of someone where you work who will be able to discuss your injury (for example human resources (HR) representative or business owner)
  • date when you stopped work
  • if you had time off work, and if medical treatment was required
