Workers Comp in Niagara Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Long stretches behind the wheel and manual handling in the Manns Road estates account for most of the injuries we see from Niagara Park. Report it to your employer, then get in front of a doctor for the assessment and Certificate of Capacity a NSW claim needs. With the claim accepted, your treatment is funded, and our physios handle the back and shoulder work while our doctors keep your capacity under review.

Workers Comp in Niagara Park — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For HGV driver back injuries, forklift incidents, or loading-dock crush trauma, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Niagara 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.
