Starting this month, WCB Nova Scotia is pleased to offer the first in a series of informative webinars, to share more information about gradual onset psychological injury.

Hosted by the WCB’s Director of Psychological Injury Lynette Fenton, the webinar offers an opportunity to learn about;

• What’s covered under the new legislation, and what isn’t covered.
• What workers and employers can expect from the WCB’s service for this new type of compensable injury.
• New service approaches to support timely recovery and return to work.
• Where to find tools and resources to help create a psychologically safe workplace.
• Participants will also have the opportunity to ask questions and share feedback through the webinar chat.  

Please note: This webinar is an information session on gradual onset psychological injury. Questions about existing claims will not be addressed during this information session. Please direct any questions about an existing WCB claim to your case worker, or to the WCB's Client Relations Officer for appropriate assistance. 

We look forward to welcoming you to the webinar!
