Workers Comp in EppingWhere to Start

Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Office ergonomics and classroom incidents sit at opposite ends of what a workplace injury looks like around Epping, and both go through the same NSW process. The starting point is a Certificate of Capacity, which a doctor writes after examining you and working out what you can safely manage at work. Our doctors write those for Epping workers, and the physio or psychology sessions afterwards are covered by an accepted claim.

2

Get 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.

3

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.
