Workers Comp in Oxford Falls — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
A kick from a horse or a fall off a ladder on a bush block can put you out of work for months. Around Oxford Falls those injuries sit alongside the carpenter and roofer strains coming off the hospital precinct builds. Each one needs a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity before the claim can move, and our doctors and physios take it from there once the insurer accepts liability.

Workers Comp in Oxford Falls — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
Whatever the injury, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor — no employer or insurer approval needed first.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Oxford FallsGet 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.
