Workers Comp in ParkleaWhere to Start

Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Forklift tip-overs in the M7 distribution centres and shoulders that give out slowly over a picking career both count as work injuries. Either one has to be examined by a doctor and set down on a Certificate of Capacity before the insurer will act. For Parklea workers, our doctors take care of that side, and the accepted claim funds the treatment our physios provide.

2

Get 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.

3

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.
