Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Hospital and clinic staff around Allambie carry injuries that build slowly, from lifting patients through to long days on hard floors. The first document in the claim is a Certificate of Capacity, and a doctor writes it after examining you. Our physios and psychologists then take on the treatment, at no cost to you once the insurer accepts the claim.

2

Get 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.

3

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.
