Workers Comp in Stanhope GardensWhere to Start

Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.

Plenty of Stanhope Gardens workers turn up with the same complaint — a chippy off scaffold on a residential job. A medical certificate written by someone who actually reads workers comp files daily takes the guesswork out of the rest of the claim. From that single visit, the rest of the claim — payments, treatment, return planning — takes shape.

Book a doctor in Stanhope Gardens
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.
