Workers Comp in East Kurrajong — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Farm and horse-property work out past Kurrajong sends people in with crush injuries, deep cuts and backs worn down by decades of fencing and lifting. Distance makes it tempting to leave an injury alone, but the claim cannot start until a doctor examines you and completes a Certificate of Capacity. That appointment happens with our doctors, and treatment with our physios is covered once the insurer accepts the claim.

Workers Comp in East Kurrajong — 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 East KurrajongGet 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.
