Workers Comp in Gundary — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Time behind the wheel between Gundary and Goulburn does not help a back that was already hurt lifting at work. Whatever the cause, the claim needs a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity before anything else moves. Let your employer know in writing. Our doctors handle the assessment and our physios treat the manual-handling injuries that come off hospital and aged-care work.

Workers Comp in Gundary — 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 GundaryGet 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.
Common workers comp claims in Gundary
Workers comp claims in Gundary most often come from the local healthcare and government workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Gundary sits immediately south of Goulburn off the Hume between Boxers Creek and Brisbane Grove, with most working residents commuting daily into Goulburn for hospital, corrections and retail roles, plus those running small grazing or hobby blocks. Workers compensation files from Gundary tend to involve manual-handling injuries from nursing and aged-care shifts, slip-and-twist events on city loading docks, and the joint strain that follows long stretches behind the wheel.
