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

Around Milsons Point, a consultant juggling client deadlines dealing with a stress-leave claim or migraines triggered by overwork is a weekly story rather than a rare one.

Book a doctor in Milsons Point
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.
