Annual Report
Section 175 of The Workers' Compensation Act, 1979 requires that the WCB submit an Annual Report to the Lieutenant Governor giving information about our performance against our Strategic and Operational Plan and financial statements. View the list of WCB's Annual Reports Stakeholder Programs Although the WCB operates at arm's length from the provincial government, it is accountable to stakeholders in numerous ways. Indeed, many of the WCB's events listed here are unique in Canada, providing stakeholders opportunities to meet with key decision makers. Compensation Institute This three-day, no-cost, public education event allows you to learn about workers' compensation system. Sessions include everything from claims management process to injury prevention and safety programs. Learn more about this year's Compensation Institute. Annual General Meeting The WCB was the first in Canada to hold annual public meetings starting in 1995. Now a legislated event (section 22.2 of the Workers' Compensation General Regulations ), it supports the organization's dedication to openness and accountability by providing an overview of the WCB's operations. View highlights from past Annual General Meetings. Compensation Reporter Our newsletter updates stakeholders throughout the year on what is happening at the WCB. You can also find information about policy changes, special events and many more other subjects in each issue. View a list of past Compensation Reporter newsletters. Employer Premium Consultation This annual fall process is spread over two to three weeks. Employer groups and associations are invited to discuss the WCB's projections for the following year's premiums. Committee of Review A panel made up of equal employer and worker representation reviews the WCB every four years, as required by legislation (section 162 of the Workers' Compensation Act). The Report of the 2006 Committee of Review (Part 1 and Part 2) was released in July 2007. Also read information about the 2001 Committee of Review. Back to Top In addition to special events, the WCB has ongoing programs year-round that raise awareness about the WCB, and educate employers and workers alike about injury prevention. Speakers Bureau Although virtually everyone is covered by workers' compensation, few know much about it. Through Speakers Bureau, the WCB can provide your organization or workplace with a qualified speaker or presenter. Choose a WCB topic that's important to your organization or industry, and we'll deliver. Presenters range from Board and Executive members to front-line staff.
