Workers Comp in Medlow Bath — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Kitchen work at the upper Mountains venues and building on the steep blocks both bring injured workers to us. A claim cannot proceed until a doctor has examined you and completed a Certificate of Capacity, so that is the first appointment to make. The doctor writes it and reviews it as your capacity changes. Back, knee and ankle physio we line up is covered once the insurer accepts the claim.

Workers Comp in Medlow Bath — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For kitchen burns, slip injuries, lifting strain, or repetitive-strain wrist issues, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Medlow BathGet 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.
