Workers Comp in Cambridge Gardens — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Anyone hurt on a Cambridge Gardens job site or a hospital ward should be seen by a doctor before anything else happens. That appointment produces the Certificate of Capacity, the record of what you can and cannot do while you recover. Our doctors write and update it, and our physios treat the wrist, back and shoulder problems that tiling, fitout and nursing work leave behind. You pay nothing for treatment the insurer has accepted.

Workers Comp in Cambridge Gardens — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For kitchen burns, slip injuries, lifting strain, or repetitive-strain wrist issues, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Cambridge GardensGet 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.
