Workers Comp in Chatsbury — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Yard work, shearing runs and fencing seasons around Chatsbury cause crush injuries, slips on wet woolshed floors and lower-back pain that accumulates for years. Farm employees are covered by the NSW scheme, and a doctor's examination plus the Certificate of Capacity get the claim moving. Our doctors keep the certificates going while our physios work on the back and shoulder damage, all funded by the insurer once the claim is accepted.

Workers Comp in Chatsbury — 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 ChatsburyGet 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.
