Workers Comp in Blakney Creek — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Sheep and cattle stations around Blakney Creek keep people in the yards, on the fences and out on quads for long days. Sprains, shoulder damage and joint strain from that work are claimable, and the process begins with a medical appointment. We book a WorkCover doctor who writes the Certificate of Capacity, and we send the insurer what it needs. Physio is covered once the claim is accepted.

Book a WorkCover doctor in Blakney CreekGet your Certificate of Capacity
Your doctor writes this at 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. We make sure it reaches your employer and insurer.
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.
