Workers Comp in Bellmount Forest — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
A grazier hurt fixing a fence on a Bellmount Forest paddock or a courier rolling out of the Gunning depot with a back spasm both need the same first move. Booking a workers compensation-trained GP for an early appointment locks in the clinical record the insurer relies on. From that initial assessment, weekly cover begins to flow and physio bookings clear the queue.

Workers Comp in Bellmount Forest — 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 doctor in Bellmount ForestGet 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.
