Workers Comp in Shanes Park — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Around Shanes Park, it often looks like this — a roof tiler with damaged ligaments after a fall on a pitch. The hinge is one early appointment: a properly written medical certificate from the first visit. Before that lands, the insurer has nothing concrete to fund or approve. In any workers compensation claim, the front-end appointment carries the load.

Workers Comp in Shanes Park — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a doctor in Shanes ParkGet 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.
