Workers Comp in Pomeroy — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Shearing sheds, cattle yards and fence lines west of Goulburn put steady strain through backs, shoulders and wrists, and the damage often builds over seasons rather than in one moment. A gradual injury is still a work injury, and it still starts with a doctor's examination and a Certificate of Capacity. Our doctors know how to document that history, and our physios treat the lower back and shoulder once the claim is accepted.

Workers Comp in Pomeroy — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
For machinery, livestock, or chemical exposure incidents on-site, your first stop is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in PomeroyGet 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.
Common workers comp claims in Pomeroy
Workers comp claims in Pomeroy most often come from the local agriculture and livestock workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.
Pomeroy is a small grazing locality west of Goulburn between Mummel and Bannister, where local working life centres on sheep and cattle operations, with rural contracting roles and trade work commuting into Goulburn city. Workers compensation files from Pomeroy frequently involve crush and kick injuries from yard work, fencing-related shoulder and wrist strain, and the persistent lower-back pain that builds up across long shearing and lambing seasons.
