Failure to disclose any and all relevant physical, medical and/or any other illness, injury or condition, and/or any past or pre-existing illness, injury or condition suffered by you which may affect your ability to fulfil the Position(s) applied for, may result in you being dis-entitled to claim compensation pursuant to the relevant workers compensation laws in respect of any further illness, injury or condition recurrence, exacerbation or aggravation of this injury, illness or condition. In particular, section 571B of the Workers Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003 (Qld) (the Act) states that if requested by a prospective employer, a prospective worker (you) must disclose to the prospective employer (us) your pre-existing injury or medical condition, if any. If you, as a prospective worker, knowingly make a false or misleading disclosure, under section 571c of the Act, you (or any other claimant) will not be entitled to compensation, or to seek damages for any event that aggravates the pre-existing injury or medical condition.
