Workers Comp in Jamisontown — Where to Start

Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Aged-care shifts, retail floors and the residential build across the Penrith corridor all send injured workers our way from Jamisontown. Everything runs off that first medical appointment, where you are examined and given a Certificate of Capacity. The doctor we book carries out that examination and records the restrictions your employer has to work around. We then line up physio or psychology, funded by the accepted claim.

2

Get 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.

3

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.
