• Resources

• Questions

Topics

To work with workers and employers as follows:

• To promote the prevention of workplace injury, illness, and

disease

• To rehabilitate those who are injured, and assist with timely

return to work

• To provide fair compensation to replace lost wages for injured

workers during their recovery

• To ensure sound financial management for a viable workers’

compensation system

WorkSafeBC’s Mandate

The average base premium rate is projected to remain unchanged at $1.70 per $100 of employers’ assessable payroll.

Increase in claims costs, Long Term Disability awards, and Health Care costs

• Excess investment returns

• $117 million withdrawal from the Capital Adequacy Reserve, and the capping of rate increases for industries at 20 percent have kept the average rate from increasing next year

• 44 percent of employers will experience a base rate increase

• 54 percent of employers will experience a base rate decrease

• 2 percent of employers will have their base rate remain unchanged
