Workers Comp in Faulconbridge — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Property clearing and roof work on the mountain blocks around Faulconbridge cause falls and chainsaw injuries, while nursing, rail maintenance and village retail fill out the rest of the local claim pattern. The appointment after an injury does two jobs, treating you and producing the Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors cover both, and our physios take the recovery from there.

Workers Comp in Faulconbridge — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For kitchen burns, slip injuries, lifting strain, or repetitive-strain wrist issues, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in FaulconbridgeGet 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.
