Workers Comp in Tennyson Point — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Nursing shifts and long screen hours cause injuries that build over months. If that is what you are dealing with at Tennyson Point, bring an account of your duties so the doctor can record how the work caused it. Our doctors examine you and put that duty history into the certificate. Physiotherapy is covered on an accepted claim, and so is psychology where the injury is psychological.

Workers Comp in Tennyson Point — 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 Tennyson PointGet 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.
