Workers Comp in Marlow — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Oyster leases, river transport and small civil jobs on the steep ridges near Marlow put people in isolated, awkward workplaces. Every claim needs a Certificate of Capacity written by a doctor before the insurer will take it on. Our doctors examine you, write the certificate and keep it up to date. The accepted claim covers whatever physio the injury needs.

Workers Comp in Marlow — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
Whatever the injury, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor — no employer or insurer approval needed first.
Book a WorkCover doctor in MarlowGet 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.
Common workers comp claims in Marlow
Workers comp claims in Marlow most often come from the local aquaculture and construction workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Marlow is a remote Hawkesbury River-mouth pocket near Spencer, with the small working population in oyster farming, river transport, bushcare, rural construction and the maintenance trades servicing isolated waterfront properties. WorkCover claims from Marlow often involve back, shoulder and laceration injuries from boat-based work, alongside the falls and crush claims tied to land clearing and small-scale civil work on the steep, heavily timbered ridges around the river.
