Workers Comp in St Peters — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Brewery floors and small-batch food production bring burns, cuts and slips, and the warehouses along Burrows Road add the lifting and crush injuries. A NSW claim needs medical evidence first, which means an appointment and a Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors write that certificate for St Peters warehouse, production and motorway workers. Our physios take the rehabilitation from there, paid for under the accepted claim.

Workers Comp in St Peters — 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 St PetersGet 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 St Peters
Workers comp claims in St Peters most often come from the local manufacturing and logistics workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
St Peters straddles the Princes Highway and the Sydenham rail corridor, with light manufacturing, warehouse logistics and trade-services dominating local employment along Burrows Road. Workers compensation matters here cluster around lifting and crush injuries from warehouse staff, plus burn, laceration and slip claims from the breweries and small-batch food production that have filled out the old factory stock. Construction crews on the M8 motorway extension also feature.
