The average payout can vary significantly across states and types of claims.
For example, in New South Wales in 2024 the average compensation paid per new workers’ compensation claim was roughly $53,758, while in Victoria it was approximately $95,573.
Another guide shows a broader range of settlement values—from $22,480 to $631,370 depending on severity and scale of negligence.
When you think of workplace compensation claims, you might think of dramatic falls, but the most frequent mechanism of injury in Australian workplaces is “body stressing”, meaning lifting, pushing, pulling or bending.
You don’t always need a lawyer to lodge a workers’ compensation claim, but it’s highly advisable.
For straightforward injuries you might manage without legal assistance, but if your claim is complex, involves lump sums, permanent impairment or disputes, a lawyer can help navigate evidence and negotiations, and can significantly reduce your mental load during what is likely a stressful time anyway.
Claims for psychological or mental injuries (like work-related stress, anxiety or trauma) tend to be among the hardest to prove.
This is because they often require showing a significant contributing factor from work and providing robust medical and workplace evidence — something that is more complex than many straightforward physical injuries.
There’s no single average figure for “pain and suffering” (which is considered a non-economic loss) in Australia as payouts fluctuate widely based on injury severity, jurisdiction and whether negligence is established.
That said, one summary of settlements shows that for mental stress the average was around $46,400, and for body/muscular stress about $15,500 in one dataset.
Injuries caused by lifting, pushing, pulling or bending are cited as the mechanism responsible for about 37% of all serious workers’ compensation claims in Australia.
