Workers Comp in Ingleside — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Horse work, land clearing and small-acreage maintenance around Ingleside cause injuries that are easy to shrug off and hard to undo. If a fall or a chainsaw has put you out, see a doctor before you go back to the property, and ask for the Certificate of Capacity that opens your claim. Our doctors handle rural injuries regularly, and our physios take over the rehabilitation once the insurer accepts it.

Workers Comp in Ingleside — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For machinery, livestock, or chemical exposure incidents on-site, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in InglesideGet 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.
