Our mandate, vision, mission, goals & values

We are committed to creating a province free from workplace injury or illness, and to providing service driven by our core values of integrity, accountability, and innovation. By partnering with workers and employers, we help British Columbians come home from work safe every day.

Our organization was established by provincial legislation as an agency with the mandate to oversee a no-fault insurance system for the workplace.

We partner with employers and workers in B.C. to do the following:

• Promote the prevention of workplace injury, illness, and disease
• Rehabilitate those who are injured, and provide timely return to work
• Provide fair compensation to replace workers’ loss of wages while recovering from injuries
• Ensure sound financial management for a viable workers’ compensation system
