Workers Comp in GrasmereWhere to Start

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

After a work injury around Grasmere, two things need to happen.

Our doctors do that assessment and set out what you can safely do on the property or the site. Physiotherapy and other treatment are covered once the claim is accepted.

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.
