Report a workplace injury or disease
When someone suffers a work-related injury or disease, we're here to help. We understand it can be a stressful time and we offer support through each step of the process, starting with the initial report of the injury.
At the beginning of the claim, we need to hear from the injured worker and their employer. If the worker was assessed or treated by a health care provider, we also need to hear from the provider. We use this information to start the claim and assess the worker’s eligibility for services and benefits.
Select one of these options to report an injury:
As an injured worker
I’ve been injured at work.
As an employer or business
A worker was injured at my workplace.
As a health care provider
I’ve treated or assessed an injured worker.
What to report
Please contact us as soon as possible if you, your worker, or your patient:
- Sustains a physical injury (even if no time from work is missed)
- Receives a diagnosis of a work-related disease
- Has a mental health injury related to work or the work environment
- Has hearing loss due to prolonged exposure or a specific incident
- Suffers broken eyeglasses, dentures, hearing aid, or artificial limb due to a work-related incident
Employers are required to report a worker's injury or illness within 72 hours of becoming aware of it.
Reporting serious incidents and fatalities
Employers must also immediately report serious incidents and fatalities to us by calling the Prevention Information Line. This is in addition to reporting an injury related to a claim.
