Workers Comp in KingsgroveWhere to Start

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

Machine operation and forklift work in the Kingsgrove Road sheds cause crush injuries, hand injuries and the slow lower-back damage that comes from years of heavy lifting. Any of them is a claim, and each begins with a doctor examining you and issuing the Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors handle the medical side and our physios rebuild the strength you lost, both covered by the insurer under an accepted claim.

2

Get 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.

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.
