What type of injuries do I need to report to the WSCC?

Report if a worker:

  • needed medical aid;
  • cannot return to work the day that the injury occurred;
  • is unable to return to their job after the day of the injury;
  • loses consciousness; or
  • were exposed to a dangerous substance.          

(If any ONE of these instances apply.)

To report an incident, injury or dangerous occurrence you must complete and submit an Employer’s Report of Incident.

Employers must submit the fully-completed incident report within three business days, or will incur penalties as listed in the Workers’ Compensation Acts. Please note that to report an accident causing serious bodily injury or a dangerous occurrence, you must call the 24-hour Incident Reporting line at 1-800-661-0792 as soon as is reasonably possible and complete and submit the report within three business days.
