AB Phillips conducted a review of our workers compensation and remuneration procedures in February 2008.  We received on site training, on how to identify ongoing claims and small claims that were better being managed internally.  Also the help we received enabled us to identify overstated wages which meant we received a refund on overpaid premiums from the 2003/2004 period onwards.

The information assisted us in doing our Declaration of Rateable Remuneration stating only the portion of wages that need to be included to calculate our premium.

In summary they gave us the opportunity to identify improvements in the way our company manages potential and actual claims.  This has resulted in fewer claims which have ultimately had a positive impact on our annual premium.

Thank you for the opportunity to express my gratitude for the work you have done for me. It is reassuring to know that in the world of employee rights and those who actively advertise to uphold these rights, we as employers are not alone and have someone who is capable and willing to go in and bat for us - you have pulled me out of the mire in the past and I thankyou for it.

The partnership with AB Phillips has turned around the way we handle our Workers Compensation issues from a reactive to a proactive approach. Needless to say it saved us – and continues to save us – thousands of dollars annually.  Also the relationship with our workforce has improved a lot in these matters.

With all of the everyday pressures of running a business, workers compensation is an area where an experts attention is not only absolutely appreciated, but definitely a requirement. AB Phillips has always been there to guide me through the difficult claims, legislation and to help minimize costs of workcover premiums. 

We would not have been able to tackle the difficulties of understanding and handling any of the claims without Peters help.

At first I was sceptical, when I was told by an insurance company, “we can save you money!”  But I thought, “What do I have to lose?”  It’s a free assessment after all.  WorkCover insurance is something we need, but hate paying.
 
After having a chat with Troy from AB Phillips, we filled out their survey.  Not long after I received the results of our review.  Apparently our workplace was incorrectly classified and we were due for a refund.  Much to my delight it was a very high five figure refund, backdated 3 years!
 
We signed up with AB Phillips and banked the refund.  They also supplied ongoing advice on how to reduce the amount and impact of claims.

Ever since then we have outperformed the industry rate.

AB Phillips is our secret, but it’s one we love to share!
