WorkSafeBC's governing body, the Board of Directors, has approved the release of a discussion paper with options to stakeholders for comment.

At issue is whether an employer should receive cost relief in cases where a subsequent non-compensable incident delays a worker’s recovery from a compensable disability.

The discussion paper and information on how to provide feedback can be accessed through the link below.

The consultation period for this item will end on May 14, 2010. The Board of Directors will consider stakeholder feedback before making a decision on the proposed policy.
