Whether an employee can take or accrue annual leave while receiving workers' compensation in Victoria depends on the interaction between state industrial laws and the specific provisions contained in their governing modern award, enterprise agreement (EA), or employment contract. Generally, during the initial phases of a workers' compensation claim, many industrial instruments permit employees to continue accruing annual leave, though taking paid annual leave while simultaneously receiving weekly statutory compensation is heavily restricted or prohibited because compensation is already designed to replace lost income.
