Workers Comp in Collaroy Plateau West — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Our doctors see injured workers from Collaroy Plateau West out of the hospital, the coastal venues and the building trades. In every one of those cases the insurer wants a Certificate of Capacity, and only a doctor who has examined you can write it. We keep those certificates updated as your capacity changes, and physiotherapy and psychology treatment is paid for under an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Collaroy Plateau West — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For nursing manual-handling injuries, aggression claims, or shift-work-related strain, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Collaroy Plateau WestGet 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.
