Workers Comp in Windsor — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Flood recovery has kept trade and civil crews busy across Windsor for years, and that work produces injuries. If yours happened on a rebuild or on one of the turf blocks along the river flats, see a doctor before anything else. The Certificate of Capacity that follows the examination is what your employer's insurer uses to open the claim. Treatment with our physios is funded once that claim is accepted.

Workers Comp in Windsor — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For machinery, livestock, or chemical exposure incidents on-site, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in WindsorGet 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 Windsor
Workers comp claims in Windsor most often come from the local agriculture and construction workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Windsor is the historic centre of the Hawkesbury, with Thompson Square, the Windsor Bridge, and nearby RAAF Base Richmond shaping the local economy. Agriculture and turf farms line the flood-prone river flats, and repeat flood recovery through the late 2020s has kept a large trade and civil workforce busy rebuilding homes and sheds across the town.
