Workers Comp in Elizabeth Hills — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Warehouse and freight work around Elizabeth Hills breaks people in predictable ways, from a reach-truck pinning to the shoulder that finally goes after years of picking. Once your employer knows, the next step is a doctor's examination, and the Certificate of Capacity should describe the duties you actually do. Our doctors write them with that detail, and the shoulder or back rehab happens with our physios once treatment is approved.

Workers Comp in Elizabeth Hills — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
Whatever the injury, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor — no employer or insurer approval needed first.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Elizabeth HillsGet 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.
