 Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB)WCB CoverageWhen you're covered by the WCB, you're protected against lawsuits from injured workers. If a worker is injured or contracts an occupational disease while on the job during the course of employment, the WCB covers the worker's medical and wage-loss costs. Most business operations in British Columbia are required to have compensation coverage - about 80 per cent of all employers. Employers who are uncertain about their need to register for compensation coverage should contact the WCB for information. Overall responsibility for complying with the Workers Compensation Act and WCB Regulations and for paying assessments rests with the employers, as the controllers of the workplace. For more information please contact: See local area offices of the Workers' Compensation Board.
