Workers Comp in Menangle Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Concreting and earthmoving through the Macarthur corridor put steady load on knees and backs, and a fall from height can end the week outright. See a doctor before anything else, because the Certificate of Capacity has to come from a medical examination. Our doctors write it, treat the injury and review your capacity as you improve. Our physios deliver the rehabilitation that an accepted claim pays for.

Workers Comp in Menangle Park — 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 Menangle ParkGet 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.
