CFA is bound by the Information Privacy Act 200 (Victoria), and data were collected in accordance with these principles to maintain confidentiality and privacy of the data provided.  \r\n\r\nData Compiler(s):\r\nData are collected by CFA which is a volunteer and community-based fire and emergency service organisation. \r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nCFA ensures data are securely maintained, and does not report identifiable information. \r\n\r\nRelevance:\tData topic: \r\nData were collected on workers and volunteers injured while working for CFA.\r\n\r\nLevel of geography: \r\n\u2022\tData are available for CFA jurisdictions within the state of Victoria. \r\n\u2022\tAny injuries that occur as a result of undertaking business for CFA inter-state or internationally are also captured. \r\n\r\nKey Data Items:\r\nData are available for: \r\n\u2022\tCFA WorkSafe premium versus industry rate\r\n\u2022\tEmployee lost time claims\r\n\u2022\tStandard employee claims\r\n\u2022\tEmployer claims with time loss of 13 weeks or greater\r\n\r\nNumerator/Denominator Source: \r\nWorkforce information to calculate rates was obtained from CFA employee and volunteer Human Resource records. \r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\n\u2022\tData were captured to meet CFA's statutory obligations, and to monitor workforce injuries and trends\r\n\u2022\tStandard classifications and coding frames were used to capture data.\r\n\u2022\tData are only included for reported compensable injuries. Those injuries that have not been reported, and near misses, are not included.  \r\n\r\nTimeliness:\tData collected: \r\nData are collected on an ongoing basis and reported as required. \r\n  \r\n\r\nData available: \r\nData are available as and when required. \r\n\r\nReference Period: \r\nThe reference period is 2008-2015 financial years.\r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nData may change following its release based on changes to injury status. For example, some claims may be ongoing and full data and costs relating to the claim many take many months (or years) to eventuate. Further, some claims may not be made until many years after an incident, for example in the case of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).  \r\n\r\nAccuracy:\tMethod of Collection: \r\nData were collected by a dedicated OH&S team at CFA, in conjunction with WorkSafe Victoria. All data are captured using a hard copy form and manually entered into the system. All subsequent processing is automated. \r\n \r\nData Adjustments: \r\nData have been adjusted to aggregate and de-identify.  \r\n\r\nCollection size: \r\nThe collection size varies depending on the data item. \r\n \r\nUnder Counts: \r\nThere may be under counts relating to claims not yet made (e.g. in the case of PTSD claims) or claims not yet closed off.  \r\n\r\nOver Counts: \r\nThere are no known issues with over counts. \r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nData processing is automated to minimise processing errors. Standard procedures and coding manuals are used to minimise data entry errors. \r\n\r\nCoherence:\tConsistency over time: \r\nThe data are relatively consistent over time, however there are occasional changes to claims coding and descriptors. \r\n\r\nConsistency of jurisdictions: \r\nEach State and Territory has its own legislation and processes relating to workers' compensation. \r\n\r\nNumerator/denominator: \r\nThe numerator is the number of injured workers at CFA and the denominator is the workforce as a whole. Any discrepancies would be minor with little impact. \r\n\r\nThere is a consistent time series for the data.\r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nThese data are comparable with WorkSafe claims data.\r\n\r\nData collection has been relatively consistent since 1994, except for minor definitional changes. \r\n\r\nInterpretability:\tContext: \r\nThese data relate to both physical and psychological injury. \r\n\r\nOther Supporting information: \r\nFurther information on Workers' Compensation can be found on the WorkSafe Victoria website \r\nhttp://www.vwa.vic.gov.au/ \r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\nTechnical terms are described on the WorkSafe Victoria website http://www.vwa.vic.gov.au/ \r\n\r\nAccessibility:\tNo further data are available. \r\n\r\nContact details:\r\n\r\nCFA Headquarters\r\nAddress:  8 Lakeside Drive, Burwood East, Victoria Australia 3151\r\nPostal Address:  PO Box 701, Mount Waverley, Victoria Australia 3149\r\nTelephone: +61(3) 9262 8444\r\nFax: +61 (3) 9264 6200\r\n\r\n\r\nAdditional information: \r\n\u2022\tData are available in an Excel spreadsheet.  \r\n\u2022\tThere are a number of privacy and confidentiality issues therefore all data have been aggregated and de-identified prior to release. \r\n\r\n", "datastore_active": false, "datastore_contains_all_records_of_source_file": false, "filesize": "", "format": "XLSX", "hash": "", "id": "b6a11306-704f-4297-a1f5-758ccf4173a5", "last_modified": null, "metadata_modified": "2025-06-25T20:17:50.220709", "mimetype": null, "mimetype_inner": null, "name": "CFA Worksafe Employee & Volunteer Claims", "package_id": "6a9283b3-6898-4d63-bb62-5cd7e68e0b10", "period_end": "2016-12-31", "period_start": "2008-01-01", "position": 0, "release_date": "2014-12-29", "resource_type": null, "size": null, "state": "active", "token": "8222f1531328efb622c011fa362279590f9876a5f9f2cfdd2b44539a8c91e4a6", "url": "https://www.cfa.vic.gov.au/fm_files/File_links/CFA-Worksafe-Employee-And-Volunteer-Claims.xlsx", "url_type": null, "zip_extract": false}], "tags": [{"display_name": "CFA", "id": "f3647c5e-3bc2-408e-8636-31fe1b9721d2", "name": "CFA", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}, {"display_name": "Compensation", "id": "835ec3a1-e09c-4a8d-a5fc-0f99e5fee215", "name": "Compensation", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}, {"display_name": "Injuries", "id": "0239bd83-7428-4cec-8ad2-952d073bfae0", "name": "Injuries", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}, {"display_name": "Volunteer Fire Fighters", "id": "f1776c51-f9e2-4f6b-bffa-d46a581ef223", "name": "Volunteer Fire Fighters", "state": "active", "vocabulary_id": null}], "groups": [], "relationships_as_subject": [], "relationships_as_object": []}}
