Workers Comp in KanangraWhere to Start

Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Kanangra's deep-bushland park-ranger and forestry workforce face workers compensation matters where remoteness affects everything. The order of operations is simple: a Certificate of Capacity authored by a GP who fills these out regularly. Skip it, and weekly payments, physio bookings and scans all stay frozen. Plenty of workers find the rest manageable once that first visit is in the rear-view.

Book a doctor in Kanangra
2

Get 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.

3

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.
