Workers Comp in Naremburn — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Screen-based work causes neck, wrist and shoulder injuries that qualify for workers compensation in NSW. Our doctors record the work setup and issue the certificate the insurer will assess. Kitchen and floor staff along Willoughby Road with burns or lifting injuries start in the same place. The strain that desk and kitchen work cause is treated by our physios under an accepted claim.

Workers Comp in Naremburn — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For RSI, shoulder tension, or stress claims common in office work, you'll see a WorkCover-trained GP first — no employer approval needed.
Book a WorkCover doctor in NaremburnGet 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.
