Workers Comp in Narrabeen — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
If coaching, kitchen or retail work around the lagoon has injured you, a doctor needs to assess you and write a Certificate of Capacity. Both parts of that happen in our clinic, and the certificate is updated as you recover. Builders and plumbers on the coastal housing upgrades are covered by the same scheme. Once the insurer accepts the claim, our physios treat the shoulder, knee and back injuries the work produces.

Workers Comp in Narrabeen — 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 NarrabeenGet 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.
Common workers comp claims in Narrabeen
Workers comp claims in Narrabeen most often come from the local hospitality and tourism workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Narrabeen's lagoon and beachfront anchor a tourism-and-cafe economy, with the Sydney Academy of Sport and the Narrabeen Sports High complex adding a meaningful education and coaching workforce. Ongoing coastal housing upgrades keep local builders and plumbers busy, and surfing-related injuries sit alongside the usual retail and kitchen claims.
