When an employee suffers an injury or illness at work and a WCB claim is made, several people have important roles to play in facilitating the WCB claim and returning the injured worker to work in the safest and quickest manner possible.

MSA has a free online course which covers the responsibilities of the people involved with managing the WCB claim; from the injured worker, management, supervisors and support staff, to the roles of WCB and health care professionals. For more course information click here: MSA Online Courses

Effective Claims management and Return to work has a direct impact on your business’s WCB premiums. Businesses can receive up to a 30% discount or up to a 200% surcharge on their WCB premiums. Try our WCB rate range calculator below to see what the maximum discount and surcharge would look like on your premiums:

Fires don’t take a vacation. Fire incidents can happen very quickly and with little warning. In as little as 30 seconds, a small flame can turn into a dangerous fire. Would you know what to do if there was a fire in your workplace?

Prepare your workers by making sure their fire safety knowledge is up to date. For more information our partners at the Canadian Center of Occupational Health and Safety have two free fire safety downloadable resources:

Fire Extinguishers (Fact Sheet)
