Workers Comp in Belrose — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Nursing staff in Belrose deal with physical injuries and with aggression on the ward, and both are workers compensation matters. The claim starts with a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity, whichever kind of injury it is. Our doctors write that certificate, and our psychologists treat the psychological side. Our physios handle the back and knee work, and the insurer funds both under the one claim.

Workers Comp in Belrose — 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 BelroseGet 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.
