Workers Comp in Artarmon — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Few North Shore suburbs still run a working industrial estate, and Artarmon claims reflect that with forklift incidents and cuts alongside office strain. Both kinds go to a doctor first, for the Certificate of Capacity that opens the claim. Our doctors handle the medical file, and our physios treat the crush and strain injuries that this mix of work produces. Cuts and crush injuries at work are covered whatever the size of the business.

Workers Comp in Artarmon — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in ArtarmonGet 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.
Common workers comp claims in Artarmon
Workers comp claims in Artarmon most often come from the local manufacturing and warehousing workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Artarmon is unusual on the North Shore for retaining a genuine industrial estate — the Herbert Street corridor is packed with auto workshops, printers, tile warehouses, and light manufacturing. That blue-collar base sits alongside office buildings backing onto St Leonards, producing a claim mix of forklift incidents, cuts, and office ergonomic issues.
