Report an Injury

It can be overwhelming to know what to do if you’re hurt at work. If it happens, follow these simple steps to report your injury, get medical treatment and claim workers compensation benefits.

 

1. Report the injury to your supervisor

Tell your supervisor right away that you were hurt at work. Your supervisor may ask you to complete a form with information about the injury. If your employer does not have a form for you, please complete the Notice of Injury to Employer form.

Please note that your employer will also report your injury to the WCB.

 

2. Go to a healthcare provider

Get the medical treatment you need. When you seek treatment, let your healthcare provider know you were hurt at work. The doctor will complete some paperwork which will help the WCB to make decisions on your claim and manage your injury.

You have the option of attending a Worker Care Clinic or the healthcare provider of your choice. Please click here for more information on a Worker Care Clinic.
