Steps to Recovery

Work is an important part of life. Remaining active, productive, and connected to your workplace can help your recovery from a work-related injury or illness.

Many workers do not need to miss any time from work but if time away from work is necessary, the WCB will work with you, your employer, and your health care providers to:

Make sure that you get the treatment you need to recover.
Develop a return to work plan that is safe and that gets you back to doing your regular job duties as quickly as possible.

Actively participating in your treatment and return to work plan is critical to your recovery.
