Workers Comp in Sans Souci — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Kitchen burns and boatyard lacerations follow the same NSW claims path as the knee damage a tiler builds up over years. See a doctor, get the Certificate of Capacity, and give it to your employer so the insurer can be notified. Our doctors do that assessment for pub-strip, supermarket and waterfront renovation workers around Sans Souci. Once the claim is accepted, physiotherapy and any psychological treatment are paid for by the insurer.

Workers Comp in Sans Souci — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For kitchen burns, slip injuries, lifting strain, or repetitive-strain wrist issues, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Sans SouciGet 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 Sans Souci
Workers comp claims in Sans Souci most often come from the local hospitality and retail workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Sans Souci sits on the Georges River across from Brighton-Le-Sands, with locals working in hospitality along Rocky Point Road, retail, marine trades and the construction crews servicing the surrounding waterfront homes. WorkCover claims here lean toward kitchen burns and wait-staff slips along the pub strip, supermarket repetitive strain, propeller and rigging lacerations in the boatyards, plus tile-setter knee damage from the constant waterfront renovation flow.
