Workers Comp in Shanes Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
If a horse has put you on the ground or a piece of farm machinery has caught you, the injury is claimable whether the property is your employer's or a client's. Get to a doctor early so the Certificate of Capacity is written while the injury is fresh. Our doctors manage that paperwork for Shanes Park farm, equine and building workers. Rehabilitation for the shoulder, back and hand injuries this work causes runs through our physios.

Workers Comp in Shanes Park — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For machinery, livestock, or chemical exposure incidents on-site, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Shanes ParkGet 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 Shanes Park
