Workers Comp in Hunters Hill West — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Ask anyone hurt at work in Hunters Hill West — a GP clinic receptionist on a long Friday shift with standing-related back pain or an aggression-incident claim hits the same first decision as everyone else. The Certificate of Capacity from a workers comp-aware doctor is what turns the day from limbo into a claim with a timeline. Wages, scans and a graded return then follow without needing constant phone calls.

Workers Comp in Hunters Hill West — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For RSI, shoulder tension, or stress claims common in office work, you'll see a WorkCover-trained GP first — no employer approval needed.
Book a doctor in Hunters Hill WestGet 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.
