Workers Comp in Warrawee — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Long screen hours and heritage renovation work make up the two main sources of Warrawee claims. Problems that built up slowly still need an examination and a certificate before the insurer will act. Our doctors do that, and teaching staff with voice or posture injuries are assessed the same way. Approved physiotherapy is covered by the insurer and provided by our physios.

Workers Comp in Warrawee — 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 WarraweeGet 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.
