Weekly compensation

Weekly compensation can help replace some of your lost income — up to 80% in most cases. Learn if you're eligible, how to apply and steps to take.

Getting back to work after an injury

We're part of the team supporting you to recover at work. Or if your injury is more serious, we can help you get into a different way of working.

Keep getting payments if you move overseas

You can still get ACC weekly compensation payments when you move overseas. You’ll need to keep up your rehabilitation and sort out a few things before you leave

Financial support if you have a permanent injury

If ACC covers your life-long injury, we may be able to give you financial support as a one-off or an ongoing payment.

Financial support if someone has died from an injury

When someone close to you dies from an injury ACC covers, we may be able to give you financial support.
