Workers Comp in Curl Curl — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Hospital work, hospitality shifts and the renovation trade keep Curl Curl busy, and each produces its own pattern of injury. Whatever yours is, the claim runs on a Certificate of Capacity that records what work you can safely do. We line up physio for patient-handling and site injuries, and your doctor keeps the certificate current while you build back to full duties.

Workers Comp in Curl Curl — 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 Curl CurlGet your Certificate of Capacity
Your doctor writes this at 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. We make sure it reaches your employer and insurer.
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.
Common workers comp claims in Curl Curl
Workers comp claims in Curl Curl most often come from the local healthcare and hospitality workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Curl Curl workers split between the Northern Beaches Hospital precinct, the surf-and-hospitality economy along the beachfront, and the trades servicing the constant Freshwater and Manly renovation activity. Workers compensation claims around Curl Curl typically involve nursing patient-handling injuries, hospitality slip-and-falls and burns, and the back and shoulder strain that comes with the area's heavy carpentry and tile-setting workload. Surf instructors also feature in claim patterns.
