Workers' Compensation
It is important you answer all questions truthfully. Failure to do so could lead to any future claim for Workers Compensation being rejected. Workers Compensation is normally payable for any disability that occurs at work or is significantly caused by your work. However the Workers Compensation Act 1981 (s.79) states where it is proved that the worker has, at the time of seeking or entering employment in respect of which he claims compensation for a disability, willfully and falsely represented himself/herself as not having previously suffered from the disability, the Board may in its discretion refuse to award compensation which would otherwise be payable.
