Workers Comp in Bobbin Head — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Ranger and marina work inside the national park is physical and often remote. Chainsaw cuts, falls from work boats and snake bites are workers compensation matters, and each one begins with a doctor and a Certificate of Capacity. We book the examination and sort the paperwork the insurer expects. We line up physio for the back damage that years of track and boat maintenance around Bobbin Head cause.

Workers Comp in Bobbin Head — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
Whatever the injury, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor — no employer or insurer approval needed first.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Bobbin HeadGet 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.
