Workers Comp in Bilgola Beach — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Work at Bilgola Beach clusters around cafes, surf and beach businesses and the builders on the clifftop blocks. A burn, a slip or a torn shoulder from any of it is a NSW workers compensation claim, and no claim goes far without a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors provide that appointment and the paperwork with it. Rehabilitation for the shoulder and back injuries of cafe and building work runs through our physios.

Workers Comp in Bilgola Beach — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For kitchen burns, slip injuries, lifting strain, or repetitive-strain wrist issues, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Bilgola BeachGet 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.
