Workers Comp in Bonnet Bay — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Carpenters and tile setters working the Shire renovation trade, shop staff on the Jannali strip and nurses at Sutherland Hospital all end up in the same claims system. Only a doctor can complete the Certificate of Capacity, so that appointment comes before your employer lodges anything. We can book that appointment for you. We line up physio for the strain, lifting and patient-handling injuries behind most Bonnet Bay claims.

Workers Comp in Bonnet Bay — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Bonnet BayGet 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.
