Workers Comp in Bexley South — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Tilers and gyprockers working the inner-south renovation market wear their wrists out over the years. Nurses and kitchen hands around Bexley South carry different injuries and the same claim process, which begins with a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity. Once the insurer accepts the claim, it pays for the treatment rather than you. Our doctors manage the certificates and reports, and our physios do the hands-on work.

Workers Comp in Bexley South — 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 Bexley SouthGet 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.
