Workers Comp in Rosebery — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Small-batch production, warehouse work and the cafe and brewery floors of Rosebery produce burns, wrist injuries and back strain in roughly equal measure. The claim begins with a medical appointment, and the Certificate of Capacity that comes out of it is what your employer passes to the insurer. Book in with one of our doctors for that examination, and our physios will pick up the wrist and shoulder work afterwards.

Workers Comp in Rosebery — 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 RoseberyGet 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.
