Workers Comp in South MarootaWhere to Start

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

Cattle and horse work throws people into fences and onto hard ground, and the damage often looks manageable until the next morning. Get it looked at properly, because the Certificate of Capacity has to come from a doctor before your employer can start the claim. Livestock, equine and building workers from around South Maroota are seen by our doctors for that assessment. Roofing falls and chainsaw injuries from the local acreage jobs are treated by our physios under the claim.

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.
