Workers Comp in Bayview — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Boat maintenance around the Bayview marinas is awkward, wet work, and shoulders take most of the damage over time. Your employer lodges the claim, but only after a doctor has examined you and written the certificate. Once the medical side is sorted, we line up physio for the shoulder and back injuries boat work and jetty falls cause. Say what happened in plain terms, including the gear you were moving.

Workers Comp in Bayview — 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 BayviewGet your Certificate of Capacity
Your doctor writes this at 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. We make sure it reaches your employer and insurer.
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.
