34 Summary (cntd.) Rate f repeat claims is cnsistent with selfreprt data frm RTW Mnitr telephne survey (35%) Repeat claimants: Yunger Greater prprtin f men Greater prprtin f blue cllar ccupatins Csts & wrk disability Sme substantial differences bserved but questins regarding methd.
35 Hwever Sme wrkers with initial claims will have had subsequent injuries that were nt cvered by WrkSafe Victria. Sme wrkers will have had initial injuries in anther jurisdictin, r minr injuries, prir t their first accepted claim in Victria. Sme wrkers will have psychlgical and scial cnditins subsequent t an initial claim that des nt appear n the database. We d nt have the cmplete picture f wrkplace injury and disease in Victria, but we have a pretty gd estimate.
36 Cnclusins & Next steps Repeat claims are cmmn, expensive, assciated with substantial wrk disability. There is a substantial pprtunity t reduce the scial, health and ecnmic burden f wrkplace injury by preventing reinjury in wrkers with a single claim. Further characterizatin f repeat claims is necessary and warranted. Cmparisn f Victria t Ontari, specifically lking at the impact f aging n repeat claims.
