Workers Comp in Huntleys Point — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Huntleys Point sees its share of injured-at-work residents; a paralegal grinding through a case backlog with wrist tendonitis or stress-related anxiety leave is a common one. The whole pathway starts here: one signed Certificate of Capacity, produced during the opening visit. Without that paper trail, the wage replacement clock simply does not start. In a workers compensation file, the early appointment is where the timeline is set.

Workers Comp in Huntleys Point — 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 Huntleys PointGet 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.
