Our company has all its people operating from home and one of my colleagues asked a question and we haven’t been able to get an answer. If someone trips over at home whilst working from home would it be classified as a workplace injury?

Here is some information
From Safe Work Australia

From QLD WorkCover

That should give you a start

This article was also in the news today. It's a tragic story but working from home was considered a workplace and the injury at home- being murdered, was a workplace injury.
