27th Annual National Workers’ Compensation Summit
Australia’s leading platform for legislative updates and workers’ compensation case studies
11-12 August 2026 | Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention & Event Centre
The way in which we work is changing, and so too is the place, and how often we work there. Automation is increasing, new forms of work are emerging and hybrid workplaces are now commonplace. One constant, though, is that employees continue to be injured carrying out their work.
The 27th Annual Workers’ Compensation Summit will look at the evolving workplace and assess how current workers’ compensation schemes reflect modern times. How well do schemes cater to psychological injuries, and how effective are workplace well-being programs in preventing harm? As the political landscape changes, we will analyse WHS policy development and assess its likely impact on workers’ compensation and the health and safety of all workers, irrespective of how, when, and where they work.
