Workers Comp in Melonba — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Scaffold falls and hand injuries are part of the daily risk on the greenfield sites across the North West Growth Area. After one, the appointment to make is with a doctor who can treat you and write the Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors do both, then keep reviewing the certificate through your recovery. Physiotherapy is covered once the insurer accepts the claim, and our physios take on the shoulder and disc rehabilitation.

Workers Comp in Melonba — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in MelonbaGet 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.
