Workers Comp in Croydon Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Croydon Park workers commute in most directions, to shops at Burwood, offices at Strathfield and cafes across the inner west. None of that changes what a claim needs. A Certificate of Capacity, produced at a medical appointment, is what your employer lodges with the insurer. Our doctors provide that assessment, and our physios and psychologists treat what follows under an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Croydon Park — 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 Croydon ParkGet 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.
