Workers Comp in Allambie Heights — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
If a shift at the hospital or a job on a Manly renovation left you injured, see a doctor before you worry about forms. The Certificate of Capacity they write sets out your duties and gets the claim to your employer's insurer. Our doctors run those appointments and our physios treat the back and knee injuries that hospital and renovation work cause. Ask for a copy of the certificate for your own records.

Workers Comp in Allambie Heights — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For nursing manual-handling injuries, aggression claims, or shift-work-related strain, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Allambie HeightsGet 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.
