In early January 2013, Gallagher Bassett (GB) commenced providing personal injury claims management services in South Australia on behalf of ReturnToWorkSA (RTWSA), formerly WorkCoverSA.

On the 5th anniversary of this account, we were thrilled to have a whopping 66 team members celebrate their five year anniversary at GB – a combined 330 years’ experience between them!

All 66 team members reached their five year anniversary on the same day, indicating that each of them has been part of the GB team since the commencement of this account.

Over the past five years the team have shared some significant achievements and milestones. These include;

• On-boarding close to 200 staff in preparation for the receipt of over 6,000 claims in early January 2013;
• Implementing scheme reform; leading to a philosophical change to the way we manage claims and the advent of mobile case management.
• Adapting to the introduction of new legislation in July 2015.
• More recently, a shift to a new premises at 115 Grenfell Street.

Shaun Meehan, General Manager - Workers' Compensation SA, is very proud of the team's achievements.

“I like to take the opportunity to thank the 66 staff who have been with Gallagher Bassett from the start of the RTWSA Contract. We have achieved a great deal in 5 years, including playing an integral part in Service Reforms and helping to address the unfunded liability of the Scheme. Their efforts have made a real difference to the South Australian Economy and Community.”

We would like to thank GB's SA team for their continued years of service.
