PLEASE NOTE:
Work on this project has been suspended prior to the implementation of any proposed policy options. The project is on hold pending a review of two new initiatives: Teleclaim and Claims Management Solutions (CMS).
Teleclaim enables workers to report injuries to WorkSafeBC by phone. It benefits employers by streamlining injury reporting, decreasing administrative work, and fostering a greater understanding of return-to-work services and the claims process. CMS will provide the means for electronic reporting, increasing the efficiency of adjudication, and improving the delivery of claims services.
Once Teleclaim and CMS are in full operation, the progress that employers have made in reporting injuries in a timely manner and by electronic means will be reviewed. The status of this policy review will then be determined.

WorkSafeBC's governing body, the Board of Directors, will consider the opinions expressed by stakeholders before it adopts any amendments to the current policies.
