The Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board is committed to achieving a representative workforce. Members of designated groups (women, aboriginal people, people with disabilities and visible minorities) are encouraged to apply.
Workers’ compensation insurance is a provincial responsibility. Each Canadian province and territory has its own workers’ compensation legislation.
The Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB) operates like an insurance company. We provide guaranteed advantages and programs to injured workers in industries covered by The Workers’ Compensation Act, 2013 and we protect registered employers from lawsuits when a workplace injury happens.
The Saskatchewan WCB was established in 1911 because of a historic compromise between Saskatchewan workers and employers. Under that compromise, workers injured on the job in covered industries do not have to pay for the benefits they receive or sue their employers to get them. Costs are paid entirely by Saskatchewan employers in covered industries. This is referred to as a no-fault insurance system, also referred to as the compensation system.
The WCB’s vision is to eliminate injuries and restore abilities. This is the fundamental driver of all that we do on behalf of our customers – the workers and employers of the province. The WCB is governed by The Workers’ Compensation Act, 2013.
The prevention department at the WCB promotes injury prevention and safety education. This department collaborates with employers, workers, labour unions and other stakeholders to develop health and safety management systems, conduct serious injury investigations and hazard assessments and provide claims and return to work consulting. In addition to delivering legislative training, prevention staff engage with stakeholders through events, presentations and tradeshows, promoting Mission: Zero and supporting the implementation of employer safety and health programs.
Prevention department staff are members of WorkSafe Saskatchewan, the partnership between the Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board and the Ministry of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety.
