Workers Comp in Berrilee — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
If a horse has kicked or crushed you on a Berrilee property, or a chainsaw has caught you clearing a block, the claim starts with a medical appointment. The doctor writes a Certificate of Capacity recording what work you can still handle, and your employer passes it to the insurer. Treatment on an accepted claim is not billed to you. We line up physio for the back and shoulder injuries that acreage and stable work cause.

Book a WorkCover doctor in BerrileeGet 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.
