Workers Comp in Gladesville — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Plastering and tiling wreck hands and elbows over a career, while ladder falls and ward lifting cause the sudden injuries around Gladesville. Retail floor slips fill out the rest. Before any of it is treated under a claim, a doctor has to examine you and complete the Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors do that, and hand, elbow and back treatment with our physios follows under an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Gladesville — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For nursing manual-handling injuries, aggression claims, or shift-work-related strain, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in GladesvilleGet 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.
