Beginning January 2022, employers will be able to view their Employer Monthly Statements online through WSCC Connect. This e-service can be used to check your account balance and view monthly statements within the past 3 years. 

In January, have your Access Administrator add the role “Payments and Statements” to the user account for the person managing bill payments for your business or organization. This can be assigned to multiple users.

Once this is done, assigned users can log in to WSCC Connect and will be able to view, email, or download a copy of your statement. Assigned users can also request email notification for when their Employer Monthly Statement is available online.

Employers, check with your WSCC Connect Access Administrator to ensure user and account details are up-to-date. Correct email addresses are important for ensuring that the designated person or people are receiving notifications when the Employer Monthly Statements are ready to view. It is always important to keep your WSCC Connect user roles and information up-to-date for all e-services.

Once you choose to receive email notifications for Employer Monthly Statements, you will no longer receive the monthly paper statements in the mail.

For more information, contact our Finance team at 1-844-238-5088.

While the average base rate remains unchanged, most employers will see their rates rise or fall, based on the claims experience of their industry group or ‘subclass’.

In setting Assessment Rates, the WSCC considers what is sustainable for claim costs, reflective of industry experience, responsive to claims experience trends, and fair to employers.

Injury prevention and improvements in return to work outcomes to reduce claims costs is what makes the biggest difference in the rates employers pay. The WSCC is working to support employers to create and maintain strong safety programs and improve return to work outcomes.

Employers can access their individual subclass or group rates for all industries for the upcoming year through WSCC Connect. You can view current and historical rates by Class & Subclass and by Specific Industry.

The WSCC is seeking input from employers on a proposal to change how pension benefits are calculated for workers who experience permanent workplace injuries or illnesses. After a positive response from the first public engagement for proposed legislative changes to the Workers’ Compensation Act(s), we are now providing draft policy documents for feedback.

The WSCC is inviting any interested people and organizations to visit the WSCC website to review the proposed changes and draft policy documents. Once you have reviewed the information, we want to hear what you think.

The proposal is open for feedback until December 8, 2021. The WSCC’s Governance Council will carefully consider all feedback before making a decision about whether or not to recommend legislative amendments.

All employers will receive information about submitting the Annual Payroll Report (APR) through WSCC Connect in early December. The deadline is February 28, 2022, but you can submit as early as January 1, 2022. Remember, you must submit an APR even if you are reporting zero (0) payroll. The penalty for late submission is 15% of your previous year's employer payroll assessment.

If you haven't received your mailed APR package by the middle of December, contact Employer Services:
