Workers Comp in BroadwayWhere to Start

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

University staff, shopping-centre crews and the construction workers reshaping the Central to Eveleigh corridor all live with Broadway's claim mix. Wrist, neck and shoulder problems from academic and office work sit alongside burns, slips and lifting injuries from food-court jobs. Each claim rests on a Certificate of Capacity that a doctor completes for your employer. Our doctors handle those, and our physios treat the injury once the insurer accepts the claim.

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.
