Workers Comp in Wentworth Falls — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Wentworth Falls Katoomba-strip hospitality workers, mountain-township allied-health staff and renovation-circuit tradies share a workers compensation opening. It traces back to one early visit: the first formal note from a doctor experienced in these claims. Without that early write-up, the claim is essentially invisible to the insurer.

Workers Comp in Wentworth Falls — 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 Wentworth FallsGet 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.
