Workers Comp in Box HillWhere to Start

Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Box Hill is a construction suburb at the moment, with framing, bricklaying and concreting crews on site alongside the freight strip and the new town centres. Falls from scaffolding, lifting injuries and forklift back injuries make up most claims here. Each one starts at a medical appointment, where the Certificate of Capacity is completed. Our physios rebuild the knees, backs and shoulders that site work damages, and our doctors write to the insurer as the claim proceeds.

2

Get 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.

3

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.
