The Government Operations Committee invites you to share your views at a public meeting on Bill 21: An Act to Amend the Workers’ Compensation Act followed by a Clause-by-Clause review of the bill.
The Committee will hear from the Honourable Vince McKay, Minister Responsible for the Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission, Rick Hunt, President and CEO of the WSCC, and wants to hear from you too. Bill 21 would update the way long-term benefits are calculated for permanently injured workers by replacing the lifetime pension with a one-time lump sum payment for a permanent injury and an ongoing benefit payment to compensate injured workers for their lost earnings.
