Worker's Compensation Board (WCB)

The Worker's Compensation Board (WCB) is a government agency that provides financial support and medical benefits to workers who are injured or become ill because of their job. It also helps employers manage workplace safety and liability, ensuring a fair process for both parties. When a worker reports an injury, the WCB assesses the claim, approves benefits if valid, and may offer return-to-work programs. Its goal is to promote safe workplaces while offering necessary support to injured workers, reducing the financial and health impacts of workplace incidents.
