IMPORTANT NOTICE - Canada Post Service Disruption

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers announced that its members began a nationwide strike on Friday, November 15, at 12:01am ET. The Workers Compensation Board will monitor the situation on a day-by-day basis, and we will only issue mail if, and when, it is possible to do so, to minimize disruption to our clients. The mail strike does not affect those who receive their payments through direct deposit. Injured workers and health care providers are encouraged to set up direct deposit. To sign up, complete the appropriate form: Worker Direct Deposit Form: https://bit.ly/3Z6Jzqk Direct Deposit Request – Service Provider Form : https://bit.ly/4ey4maM The WCB has already reached out to clients to make arrangements for payments to continue in a timely manner. Our Online Services remain available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, where you can submit claims, reports, review account balances and remit account payments electronically. If you have any questions or concerns about your payments, please contact the WCB at 902-368-5680 or toll-free 1-800-237-5049 in Atlantic Canada.
