Workers Comp in Blair Athol — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Nursing staff at Campbelltown Hospital and crews on the residential builds running south from Blair Athol file very different claims that start in the same place. You need a doctor to examine the injury and write a Certificate of Capacity for your employer. Our doctors do that and keep the insurer updated as things change. Our physios treat the back, knee and lifting injuries, and our psychologists see staff after aggression at work.

Workers Comp in Blair Athol — 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 Blair AtholGet 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.
