With the recent changes to the workers' compensation system, understanding an employer’s obligations under the BC Workers Compensation Act (“WCA”) has never been more important. Bill 41- 2022: Workers Compensation Amendment Act (No. 2), 2022 (“Bill 41”) received Royal Assent on November 24, 2022, and contains further amendments to the WCA that increase employers' obligations to injured workers and have a significant impact on both employers and employees. 

Join the Surrey Board of Trade and KSW Lawyers in this digital Impact Learning Lab and learn about the two new statutory duties - the Duty to Cooperate and the Duty to Maintain Employment and what you need to do as an employer to avoid discipline and penalties and make any necessary changes to the work or workplace to accommodate the employee's successful return to work.

Chris Drinovz, Firm Partner, Employment & Disability Lawyer, and Alejandra (Ale) Henao, Employment & WCB Lawyer of KSW Lawyers will facilitate this session.
