Book a doctor in South Granville
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.

Common workers comp claims in South Granville

Workers comp claims in South Granville most often come from the local manufacturing and transport workforces, alongside the back, shoulder, and stress injuries common across every industry.

South Granville sits between Granville and Guildford on the western edge of the Parramatta CBD catchment, with the working population concentrated in manufacturing, transport, panel beating and the construction trades servicing the surrounding rebuild. WorkCover claims here lean toward panel-beater dust and chemical exposures, fabrication burns and hand injuries, truck-driver disc damage off Parramatta Road runs, plus the long-term hearing loss that builds across the corridor's metal shops.
