When we refer to compensation we are referring to the amount of money (or damages as it is called in personal injury law terms), that you should receive to compensate you for your injuries and the expenses you have reasonably incurred and are likely to reasonably incur in the future, because of your injuries. It also has another meaning however when you have a work injury claim in Queensland. In a work injury claim it is referring to compensation you receive during your worker’s compensation claim, which is distinct from damages you receive during your Common Law Claim (or law suit) against your employer for negligently or wrongfully causing you injury.
