Is it compulsory to have an injury management system at my workplace?

Yes. There is a general requirement in the Act for you to establish an injury management system.

Requirements for the establishment, content and implementation of an injury management system are set out in the Code. Where there is a requirement in the Code that an employer “has to” do something that relates to an injury management system, it is mandatory.

Financial penalties apply to employers who do not comply with the obligations set out in the Code.
