Index of retired decisions from Volumes 1 – 6 (Decisions No. 1 – 423) of the Workers' Compensation Reporter
Explanotary note:Bylaw No. 4 (10 WCR 781) lists the policy manuals and other documents that are "published policy of the governors" for purposes of the Workers Compensation Act.1 Included in the list are Decisions No. 1 – 423 in volumes 1 – 6 of the Workers’ Compensation Reporter. These Decisions consist, for the most part, of decisions made by the former commissioners on various matters between 1973 and 1991.
In order to reduce the number of sources of "published policy", the Panel of Administrators has approved a strategy for consolidating Decisions No. 1 – 423 into the various policy manuals, as appropriate, and "retiring" the Decisions over time.
"Retire" for this purpose means that, as of the "retirement date", the Decision is no longer current policy or current published policy of the Governors under Bylaw No. 4.
"Retiring" does not affect a Decision’s status as policy prior to the date it was "retired". A "retired" Decision therefore applies in decision-making on historical issues to the extent it was applicable prior to the "retirement date". "Retiring" also does not affect the disposition of any individual matters dealt with in a Decision.
This Index sets out the Decisions from volumes 1 - 6 that have been "retired" and the "retirement date". It will be updated as further Decisions are "retired" in the future.2
1The Prevention Manual does not appear on this list. The Prevention
Manual was adopted by the Panel of Administrators as "published policy
of the governors" in 1999.
2 Decisions that do not appear in the Index should not necessarily
be considered current policy. Decisions or parts of Decisions may have
been replaced, either expressly or impliedly, by subsequent policies in
the policy manuals or other policy documents. Under Bylaw No. 4, where
there is a conflict between policy in Decisions No. 1 - 423 and policy
in a policy manual listed in the Bylaw, the policy in the manual is paramount.
In the event of any other conflict between policies, the most recently
approved policy is paramount.
