Presentation transcript:

Collective Liability All employers who operate in industries covered by the Act pay the cost of the insurance. The provincial government DOES NOT FUND THE WCB. Employers pay all premiums.

Fair Compensation Workers receive benefits based on the type of work-related injury, the seriousness of the injury, and how it affects their ability to earn wages.

First Payer The WCB is responsible for compensating injured workers for work-related injuries even though they may receive benefits from other sources (e.g. Canada Pension Plan) ….means that WCB will pay an insurance claim even though the injured worker may also get benefits from somewhere else.

Exclusive Jurisdiction Across Canada, each WCB governs, manages & decides matters related to its province’s Workers’ Compensation Act. ….. Means that each province decides/manages their own Worker’s Compensation Act.

WCB does NOT HAVE an AGE LIMIT for coverage! IF employers DO NOT PAY THEIR PREMIUMS – their workers ARE STILL COVERED when a workplace injury happens! WCB will make employers pay premiums they owe.
