Workers Comp in Chipping Norton — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Truck cabs, forklifts and warehouse racking are behind a lot of the back injuries we treat from Chipping Norton, with carpenter and tile-setter strain close behind. Stable and track staff at the racecourse get hurt in different ways again. None of it becomes a claim until a doctor has examined you and written the Certificate of Capacity. Our physios treat the injury once liability is accepted, and our doctors keep the certificates coming.

Workers Comp in Chipping Norton — 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 Chipping NortonGet 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.
