Workers Comp in Grays Point — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
If a fall on one of the steep Grays Point blocks or a burn in a local kitchen has stopped you working, the claim starts with a medical assessment. The doctor writes the Certificate of Capacity, which tells your employer what duties you can still do while you recover. Under an accepted claim, our physios treat the shoulder and knee damage that tiling and scaffolding cause.

Workers Comp in Grays Point — 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 Grays PointGet 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.
Common workers comp claims in Grays Point
Workers comp claims in Grays Point most often come from the local construction and hospitality workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Grays Point sits at the head of Port Hacking inside the Royal National Park, with the small working population in hospitality, retail, construction and the trades servicing the surrounding bush-fringed homes. Workers compensation files at Grays Point cover scaffolder and tiler shoulder strain on the steep blocks, cafe kitchen burns and front-of-house slips, plus the supermarket stocking and trolley overuse from Kirrawee and Gymea Bay shifts.
