Workers Comp in Ambarvale — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Long driving shifts and site labour around Ambarvale wear down the lower back and neck over years rather than days. Whether the injury came on suddenly or built up, a doctor needs to examine you and issue a Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors do the assessment and our physios treat the injury, with costs met by the insurer on an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Ambarvale — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For HGV driver back injuries, forklift incidents, or loading-dock crush trauma, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in AmbarvaleGet 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.
