Workers Comp in Collaroy Beach — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Cafe and pub shifts along the Collaroy Beach strip run long, and surf and lifesaving work adds its own physical load. Report the injury to your employer first. Then see a doctor, who examines you and prepares the Certificate of Capacity the insurer works from. Our doctors handle that side of things, and our physios take on the rehabilitation your role actually needs.

Workers Comp in Collaroy Beach — 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 Collaroy BeachGet 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.
