Workers Comp in Paradise Beach — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Paradise Beach Pittwater marine tradies, boutique building workers and hospitality staff, all run into the same early decision about workers comp paperwork. A Certificate of Capacity is the gateway — without that signed page the workers compensation insurer has no file to act on. Once the signature is in, weekly cover and treatment approvals slot into place.

Workers Comp in Paradise Beach — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For kitchen burns, slip injuries, lifting strain, or repetitive-strain wrist issues, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in Paradise BeachGet 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.
