Workers Comp in Glenhaven — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Norwest offices, Hills District renovations and the horse properties on the fringe make for an unusual mix of Glenhaven claims. What they share is the requirement for a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity setting out your restrictions. Both come from an appointment with our doctors, and our physios handle the wrist, back or shoulder work under an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Glenhaven — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For RSI, shoulder tension, or stress claims common in office work, you'll see a WorkCover-trained GP first — no employer approval needed.
Book a WorkCover doctor in GlenhavenGet 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.
