Workers Comp in Harris Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Kitchen injuries in the Wigram Street restaurants often get wrapped and worked through. If a burn or a knife wound is stopping you doing your job, see a doctor and get the Certificate of Capacity that starts the claim properly. Our doctors can go through what the certificate says with you. Once the claim is accepted, treatment is covered, including physiotherapy for the back and shoulder injuries from the Parramatta high-rise sites.

Workers Comp in Harris Park — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For kitchen burns, slip injuries, lifting strain, or repetitive-strain wrist issues, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Harris 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.
