Workers Comp in Gregory Hills — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Falls from height and knee injuries on the Gledswood Hills and Smeaton Grange sites are the sort of thing workers push through for a week before booking anything. The claim needs a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity to move at all. Once your employer has that, the insurer assesses it. Our physios treat Gregory Hills tradespeople and drivers through the accepted claim, and our doctors handle the medical side.

Workers Comp in Gregory Hills — 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 Gregory HillsGet 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.
