Workers Comp in Picnic Point — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
A fall on site, a bad landing off a ladder, or a courier's shoulder that has had enough all count as work injuries under the NSW scheme. If that has happened to you while working out of Picnic Point, book in with a doctor and have the Certificate of Capacity written up. Our doctors handle the medical side of the claim, and our physios treat the knee, ankle and shoulder problems that follow site work.

Workers Comp in Picnic Point — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Picnic PointGet 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 Picnic Point
Workers comp claims in Picnic Point most often come from the local construction and transport workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Picnic Point's quiet riverside streets sit between the Georges River and the East Hills rail line, with residents heading out daily to building sites across Bankstown and trade-services work along the Milperra and Revesby industrial estates. Knee, ankle and back injuries from on-site falls run heavily through local workers compensation claims, alongside repetitive-strain matters from couriers and storeworkers on Henry Lawson Drive.
