*If you are experiencing a medical emergency call an Emergency Medical Service Ambulance on 995, or go to your nearest government hospital Emergency Department.
Healthcare:
If you are experiencing health symptoms talk to your employer and ask them to organise for you to see a GP. Your employer can choose which clinic you attend. Your employer should pay for doctor’s appointments, diagnostic tests, and treatment and medications. For example, if you have a fever and a sore throat, your employer should pay for a GP appointment and any medicine you are prescribed.
Your employer does not need to pay for general checkups, preventative care, or medication not prescribed by a doctor.
You are allowed to make your own appointments for these services.
