Description

Redesigning workers’ compensation using participatory systems modelling. This project will use participatory system modelling techniques to develop and test new approaches to the design and delivery of workers' compensation in Australia. The project responds to the substantial evidence that Australia’s workers' compensation systems are failing to achieve their social and economic objectives. We will actively engage people with lived experience of work disability to co-design an alternative workers' compensation system. The outcomes of this system will be assessed using agent-based modelling, and compared to the current state. The study will provide a vision for an alternative approach to workers' compensation that supports the social and economic participation of Australians with work disability. .
