Workers Comp in Hammondville — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Aged care and warehouse work both come with lifting injuries that build until one shift finishes them off. When that happens in Hammondville, the first appointment is medical, and the Certificate of Capacity from it is what your employer lodges. We also line up a psychologist for aged-care staff with accepted claims after resident aggression. Physio for the lumbar and shoulder side is covered while the claim is accepted.

Workers Comp in Hammondville — 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 HammondvilleGet your Certificate of Capacity
Your doctor writes this at 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. We make sure it reaches your employer and insurer.
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.
