Hillside is a Hornsby Shire rural pocket near Glenorie and Annangrove, with the small working population in horticulture, equine, the trades servicing the surrounding acreage and the senior professional services commuters heading toward Norwest. Workers compensation claims out of Hillside typically involve horse-related fall and crush injuries, back and shoulder strain from fencing and stockwork, and the chainsaw and falls claims that come with rural maintenance on undulating ground.
