hi. Can you be stood down for work if you are on work cover. This happened to my friend because his police clearances expired while he was off injured.they day he returned to work they stood him down, took him off work cover and then paid him his holiday pay while he waited for his clearances. When they came through he was allowed back st work and his work cover resumed.

Sorry I'm not in SA and don't know how workcover operates in SA.

Has your friend contacted workcover? and if so, what did they say?
