Workers Comp in Carnes Hill — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Freight yards along Camden Valley Way and the estates going up around Carnes Hill produce reach-truck injuries, shoulder tears and the lumbar damage that comes with personal-care work. See a doctor before you do anything else, because the examination and Certificate of Capacity are what start and steer the claim. Our doctors write those certificates, and our physios run the rehab that an accepted claim pays for.

Workers Comp in Carnes Hill — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For HGV driver back injuries, forklift incidents, or loading-dock crush trauma, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Carnes HillGet 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.
