Workers Comp in Lavender Bay — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Some Lavender Bay locals work the finance and professional services floors up in the North Sydney towers, and others run the cafes and ferry services down at the water. A desk-related neck problem and a kitchen burn start the same way for claim purposes, with a medical appointment and a Certificate of Capacity. We book you in, and the doctor writes and updates it as you improve. Once the insurer accepts the claim, physio is covered.

Workers Comp in Lavender Bay — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For RSI, shoulder tension, or stress claims common in office work, you'll see a WorkCover-trained GP first — no employer approval needed.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Lavender BayGet 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.
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.
