Workers Comp in Girraween — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Reservoir Road is lined with factories and warehouses, and the Girraween claim load matches, running from forklift incidents to knees that have had enough of concrete and pallets. A doctor's examination puts the injury on record and produces the Certificate of Capacity the insurer needs. Certificates and reviews are done by our doctors, and our physios treat the injury as the claim progresses.

Workers Comp in Girraween — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in GirraweenGet 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.
