Workers Comp in Daceyville — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Daceyville workers turn up at UNSW labs, the Prince of Wales precinct, the shops at Eastgardens and on the tools around the suburb's older housing. None of that matters to the insurer until a doctor has examined the injury and written a Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors do it, and once the claim is accepted our physios and psychologists provide the treatment paid for through it.

Workers Comp in Daceyville — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in DaceyvilleGet 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.
