Workers Comp in Kentlyn — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Trade work across the Macarthur corridor, plus retail and hospital shifts in Campbelltown, is where most Kentlyn workers get injured. Chainsaw cuts and lifting damage on the job need documenting early, and that means a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors do that assessment and explain what it means for your duties. With the claim accepted, the insurer covers your treatment with our physios.

Workers Comp in Kentlyn — 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 KentlynGet 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.
