Referral from WorkSafe Victoria

Stonemasons may be eligible for a free initial assessment funded by WorkSafe Victoria. Please contact WorkSafe Victoria to determine if you are eligible.  More information is available from the WorkSafe Victoria website. WorkSafe Victoria will then refer you to our clinic, if appropriate.
