From www.hallpayne.com.au: In New South Wales, volunteers may be eligible for worker’s compensation if injured while working for specific agencies like the NSW Rural Fire Service and Marine Rescue NSW.

Entitlements include weekly payments for lost wages, medical expenses, and potential lump sum compensation for permanent impairment if certain thresholds are met.

If a claim is denied by SICorp, individuals can contest the decision in the District Court of New South Wales.
