Workers Comp in Stanhope Gardens — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Between the Norwest offices, the shopping village and the new builds, Stanhope Gardens sends a wide mix of injuries into the claims system. The route in is the same for all of them: a doctor's examination, then the Certificate of Capacity that goes to your employer. Our doctors cover office, retail, trade and in-home care workers from across the Hills District. The insurer covers physiotherapy and psychology once it accepts the claim.

Workers Comp in Stanhope Gardens — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For RSI, shoulder tension, or stress claims common in office work, you'll see a WorkCover-trained GP first — no employer approval needed.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Stanhope GardensGet 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.
