Workers Comp in Wentworthville — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Wentworthville Westmead Hospital healthcare staff, Station Street retail workers and Parramatta-area apartment-build tradies, all walk in with the same first question about workers compensation. What sets the wheels turning is a Certificate of Capacity from a clinician who handles workers comp paperwork weekly, not occasionally. From there, the file finally has a working pulse.

Workers Comp in Wentworthville — 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 WentworthvilleGet 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.
