Workers Comp in Macquarie ParkWhere to Start

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

Macquarie Park's tech, pharmaceutical and Macquarie University workforce generates workers compensation claims dominated by ergonomic injuries, workplace stress and commuter accidents. What changes everything is a first medical visit done properly — a workers comp-aware doctor reads the job and lodges the claim in one go. Once it is lodged, the rest of the claim becomes a series of dates, not a series of arguments.

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.
