Workers Comp in North Epping — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
North Epping Macquarie Park-bound professional-services commuters, plus Epping school teachers and corporate-tower staff, all share one starting point inside the workers compensation system. The initial assessment is the trigger — a doctor who understands the workers compensation scheme finalises the paperwork in one sitting. After that, wage continuity and treatment access stop being a phone-tag exercise.

Workers Comp in North Epping — 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 North EppingGet 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.
