Workers Comp in Yennora — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Container and forklift work at the Yennora terminal produces sudden injuries, and the yard shifts behind them wear out backs and shoulders over years. Either can be claimed in NSW once a doctor has examined you and issued a Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors write that certificate with your real duties described in it. The treatment side goes to our physios, with the insurer footing the bill.

Workers Comp in Yennora — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For HGV driver back injuries, forklift incidents, or loading-dock crush trauma, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in YennoraGet 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.
