Workers Comp in Boxers Creek — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Goulburn hospital shifts, retail, corrections work and a small grazing block are a common mix for Boxers Creek residents. You can claim for a lifting injury, a slip, or the lumbar pain that builds on long Hume runs. Book in with a doctor for the examination that produces your Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors write that document, and our physios treat the lifting and lumbar injuries once the claim is accepted.

Workers Comp in Boxers Creek — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For nursing manual-handling injuries, aggression claims, or shift-work-related strain, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Boxers CreekGet 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.
