Workers Comp in Elvina Bay — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Wet decks, oyster trays and rope work make the Pittwater jobs harder on the body than they look, and getting off the water for an appointment takes planning. The requirement does not change with the address, so a claim needs a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity before treatment is approved. Our doctors write that certificate, and physiotherapy for the shoulder or back is covered by an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Elvina Bay — 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 Elvina BayGet 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.
