A non-work related injury/illness is one that has been suffered or sustained outside of the workplace and is independent of any functions relating to the individual's employment.
While these types of injuries don't happen in the workplace, they can potentially affect the employee's capacity to satisfy the full requirements of their role and impact the health, safety and welfare of the employee and their colleagues.

That's why it can still be necessary for employers to support the recovery and return to work of injured workers even in circumstances of non-work-related injury or illness. This workshop addresses key issues regarding the management of ill and injured employees.
