Policy decisions finalized at the January 12, 1999 WCB Panel of Administrators meeting

The following is a list of policy decisions finalized by the WCB Panel of Administrators on January 12, 1999. For information about the function and mandate of the Panel, please see Governing Structure.

Housekeeping Changes to Policy Documents

The Panel has extended the authority of the Director General, Policy and Regulation Development Bureau, to make "housekeeping" changes to policy documents. In addition to the authority previously granted, the Director General may make changes of the following type:

  • changes to titles of Board staff, sections, departments or divisions where the change only affects internal operations and does not impact worker or employer rights or responsibilities, and
  • consequential changes that are clearly contemplated by decisions of the Panel.

The Policy Development Consultative Committee is to be provided with a copy of any changes prior to the change being made. Any objections raised by the Committee are to be included in the regular Bureau report to the Panel.
