Workers Comp in Orangeville — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Stock work leaves people with crush injuries and shoulders that will not come good on their own. If that has happened on a property around Orangeville, see a doctor and have the injury written up on a Certificate of Capacity, which is what a NSW claim runs on. The certificate side is ours to manage, and our physios work on the shoulder and back damage the insurer pays for.

Workers Comp in Orangeville — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For machinery, livestock, or chemical exposure incidents on-site, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in OrangevilleGet 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.
