Workers Comp in Catherine Field — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Framing, bricklaying and concreting across the Catherine Field release zone wear out knees, backs and shoulders, and a scaffolding fall can put someone out of work outright. A fall and a worn-out knee both need a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity before a claim exists. Our doctors take that on. Our physios treat the knee, back and shoulder damage, and the insurer meets the cost once liability is accepted.

Workers Comp in Catherine Field — 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 Catherine FieldGet 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.
