Your doctor will evaluate your injury and physical capacity, provide updates via the Certificate of Capacity, and recommend duties that match your abilities. This ensures a safe and sustainable return-to-work plan, coordinated with your employer and insurer.
A Certificate of Capacity is a medical certificate issued by a workers’ compensation doctor. It outlines your diagnosis, work capacity, and treatment plan. This certificate is required by your employer and insurer to process your claim and determine suitable duties while you recover.
