Workers Compensation Regulation 2016

If an injury is a loss, or further loss, of hearing that is of such a nature as to be caused by a gradual process (including boilermaker’s deafness and any deafness of a similar origin)—

notice of injury is to be given by the worker under section 61 of the 1998 Act—

if the worker is employed by an employer in an employment to the nature of which the injury is due to that employer, or

if the worker is not so employed, to the last employer by whom the worker was employed in an employment to the nature of which the injury is due, and

the notice must be in writing and be in the approved form.

Any forms issued by insurers and self-insurers for the giving of notice by workers of an injury referred to in subclause (1) must also contain such information (if any) as the Authority may from time to time approve and notify to insurers and self-insurers.
