Workers Comp in WoodparkWhere to Start

Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Weekly payments and treatment costs under an accepted claim both rely on one document, the Certificate of Capacity your doctor writes. Woodpark workers coming off the freight yards and factory floors should get that appointment done early rather than waiting to see whether the pain settles. The examination and the certificate happen in one appointment with our doctors. From acceptance onward, the insurer funds the physiotherapy you need.

2

Get 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.

3

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.
