Workers Comp in Biala — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Most Biala injuries start with fencing, stockwork or a machinery repair that went wrong. A doctor needs to see you before anything else happens, and the Certificate of Capacity written at that visit tells your employer which duties are safe. Restrictions on those duties come from our doctors, who set them at the assessment. Our physios then treat the back and shoulder strain that builds through shearing and lambing.

Workers Comp in Biala — 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 BialaGet 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.
