Workers Comp in Dural — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Our doctors see plenty of nursery, landscaping and acreage injuries from around Round Corner, along with the falls and cuts that come off Hills District building sites. Tell your employer what happened, then get examined, because the Certificate of Capacity from that appointment is what opens the claim. Treatment is paid for under an accepted claim, so our physios can get to work on the shoulder or back.

Workers Comp in Dural — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For machinery, livestock, or chemical exposure incidents on-site, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in DuralGet 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.
