NSW insurer icare apologises for underpaying injured workers $38 million
With two damning reports by the Victorian Ombudsman, WorkSafe Victoria and their greedy Insurer mates still find a way to avoid liability for their crimes – yes, crimes! I'm owed at least a few years of my wages while fighting the system – and the rest! Having to sell my home and use it as equity to start a new life due to the lack of support and unethical actions by WorkSafe and thei Insurers. The Victorian Government also escapes liability by allowing WorkSafe and their insurers to act unethically and by assigning an organisation to pretty much legislate itself. I was truly ecstatic to read this article and can imagine the relief of NSW injured workers to finally be able to move past the devastating treatment, trauma and hardship behind them... hopefully! This type of unjust treatment leaves a lot more damage than the injuries we endure at work. Unacknowledged as if we were a third world country. Shameful of Australia... except for NSW! (NSW insurer icare apologises for underpaying injured workers $38 million by Danuta Kozaki Posted
Key points:
- A total of 53,000 injured workers in NSW were underpaid.
- icare will repay $38 million to those affected
- The chief executive of icare has apologised for the errors

Enlightenment For Pain Labels What a breath of fresh air this information is! Some of the things I learned reading The Lightning Process have stuck with me, like being able to tip my head under the tap to rinse my mouth after brushing my teeth. I better explain that.

This Website is 10 Years Old – Let’s Celebrate!
Let’s not! We shouldn’t be here! pudendalnerve.com.au is coming up to its 10th anniversary. About this time a decade ago, and after seeing my diagnosing physiotherapist, who set me to the task, I began building a website. I planned for this site to serve a few people struggling to find a diagnosis for an extraordinary pain experience that no one seemed to comprehend. Hardly anyone could even name it! Never did I imagine that pudendalnerve.com.au would end up speaking to women and men around the globe. Surely healthcare can make a lot of progress [...]
Portraying Pain’s Invisible Characteristics
I thought you might like to see some of the artwork I’ve created over the past two years. It’s been slow but I’m really happy with this body of work. Being unable to travel, I’ve switched back to the topic that glares at me every day. The invisible quality of pain is still of great interest to me and I love the characteristics of dolls and whimsical characters. In these works, I’ve worked in some Fornasetti wallpaper which we have in our home. The patterns have been wonderful to paint. And in the cases [...]
