Workers Comp in Erskine Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Erskine Park runs on warehouses and freight depots, so its claims are mostly crush injuries, forklift incidents and the knees and shoulders that give out after years of sorting and lifting. Insurers act on medical evidence, which is why a current Certificate of Capacity matters so much. Our GPs deal with that paperwork constantly, and the rehab side runs through our physios.

Workers Comp in Erskine Park — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
Whatever the injury, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor — no employer or insurer approval needed first.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Erskine ParkGet 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.
