WCV: We are extremely concerned there is no injured workers involved
in this stakehokder reference group.

How are the workers rights being represented amongst this group?

There Not!

Its ironic that the decisions these groups make, will directly
effect all injured workers in Victoria, yet none are or have been
represented at this level.

How can a group of individuals make informed decsions about other
peoples lives when they themselves have never experianced what its like
to be a workcover recipient. Honestly, what would they know!!!!!

This is an injustice!
