Workers Comp in Miranda — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Retail and food-court work at Westfield Miranda means long hours standing, lifting stock and moving through crowds. An injury from that needs a doctor's assessment and a Certificate of Capacity before a claim can be lodged with the insurer. Our doctors handle both and treat the burns and slips that come out of food-court kitchens. Office and clinic staff along the Kingsway are covered too, with physiotherapy paid for once the claim is accepted.

Workers Comp in Miranda — 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 MirandaGet 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.
