Workers Comp in Alexandria — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Whether you were hurt on an apartment site or at a desk in a converted Alexandria warehouse, the process is the same. The Certificate of Capacity has to come from a doctor, so the appointment comes before the forms. Our doctors take that appointment and our physios treat the neck and wrist problems that follow long desk hours. Treatment is covered under an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Alexandria — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
Whatever the injury, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor — no employer or insurer approval needed first.
Book a WorkCover doctor in AlexandriaGet your Certificate of Capacity
Your doctor issues this on the first visit. It’s the legal document that proves you have a work injury and tells the insurer how much you can work and what treatment you need. No paperwork on your end — the doctor handles it.
Notify your employer
You’re legally required to tell your employer about a work injury — a text or email is enough. Once they get your Certificate of Capacity, they pass it to their workers comp insurer. The claim opens, and wages and treatment get covered from that point.
