SUBMITTING A WORKERS COMPENSATION CLAIM

Please note that late reporting of injury and illness can delay the insurer payment of claim benefits and can lead to your department being charged a WorkCover penalty.

If you sustain an injury or illness in the course of your employment:

• Seek appropriate medical attention and obtain a NSW WorkCover medical certificate from your doctor.
• Report your injury or illness within 24 hours to your supervisor and OHS & Injury Management using the Incident and Injury Reporting via myHRonline.
• For technical help accessing or using myHRonline contact the ICT Help Desk on x 16000. If an injury report can not be submitted online within 24 hours please contact the Workers Compensation Officer on 93514052 to report your injury by phone.
• Submit a NSW Workers Compensation Medical Certificate from your doctor as soon as possible to OHS & Injury Management by fax on 93515868 or mail to K07, University of Sydney.
• Remember to keep your supervisor informed and submit copies of your medical certificates to them.
