Workers Comp in Harrington Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Being told to come back on light duties is normal, and the Certificate of Capacity is what defines them. Our doctors write it after examining you, so the restrictions match the injury rather than the roster. For Harrington Park builders and retail staff that certificate is the first thing to get after reporting the injury. Our physios pick up the knee and back rehab from there, paid for under the accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Harrington Park — 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 Harrington ParkGet 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.
