June 15, 2017 - Starting today, workers dealing with workplace injury will have access to online services to manage their claims and support their return-to-work journey. With WCB Online, workers will be able to look up information about their claim, submit forms online, and communicate securely with WCB through messaging.
As part of its five-year plan for transformation, WCB Nova Scotia is introducing new online services for employers, workers, and tiered service providers that will help reduce time, improve processes, and ultimately support better outcomes for workers hurt on the job.
Two weeks ago, WCB Nova Scotia introduced new online services for tiered service providers and provided enhancements to MyAccount online services for employers
The launch of WCB Online for workers completes a phased approach to provide customers with easy-to-use online service options, which will help improve communication, customer experience, and overall response times. Information is sent securely online, which will help to move claims faster, and contribute to better outcomes for a safe and timely return to work.
Nova Scotians have told us we need to evolve the way we work. Improvements to online service are just one of the ways the WCB is responding to the needs of workers and employers as we continue our long-term journey toward a Nova Scotia safe and secure from workplace injury.
