Must workers agree to be interviewed by workers' compensation insurers?
Question: We have a situation in our NSW-based company where we have a workers’ compensation case pending further investigation, as it falls under reasonable excuse.
If the third-party investigation company requests interviews with other workers within our organisation, do these workers have to attend the interviews or can they
decline?
At this stage we have only been asked over the phone; not in writing. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
