Workers Comp in Darling Island — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Tower work at Darling Island, the venues below it and the offices in between all send injured workers into the same system. Your treating doctor supplies the Certificate of Capacity it runs on, and updates it as your capacity shifts. Our doctors provide it, our psychologists see workers struggling after an incident, and treatment costs sit with the insurer from acceptance of the claim onward.

Workers Comp in Darling Island — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For RSI, shoulder tension, or stress claims common in office work, you'll see a WorkCover-trained GP first — no employer approval needed.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Darling IslandGet 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.
