Balmain East workers split between professional services commuting to the CBD, the hospitality strip on Darling Street, and the shipyard and marine-industry workforce still operating along the harbour edge. Workers compensation claims here range from white-collar RSI to chef knife injuries to the welding and marine-fitting strains of shipyard work. The constant renovation of Victorian terrace stock also keeps local tradies in regular claim activity.
