The compare project
About
The COMpensation Policy And Return to work Effectiveness (COMPARE) project was established in 2014 at Monash University. The project aims to develop evidence that can help improve return to work policy and practice in Australia.
The project adopts a comparative effectiveness methodology, comparing return to work outcomes between settings and cohorts, and before-and-after changes in policy or practice.
We aim to identify policies and practices that have positive or negative effects on return to work. The project receives financial or in-kind support from every state, territory and commonwealth government in Australia.
