WCB appeal process

The WCB (Workers' Compensation Board) appeal process allows workers to challenge a decision they believe is unfair, such as claims denial or benefit disputes. To start, you submit an appeal within a specified timeframe, providing reasons and supporting evidence. The WCB reviews your case, which may involve a reconsideration or hearing, where both sides present information. If you're still unsatisfied, you can escalate to an independent review or tribunal for a formal decision. Throughout, it's important to follow deadlines and provide clear documentation to ensure your appeal is properly considered.
