The WSCC provides insurance for employers and workers, and helps prevent workplace injuries. The WSCC is also a regulator, administering the Workers’ Compensation Acts, the Safety Acts, the Mine Health and Safety Acts, the Explosives Use Acts, and associated Regulations across the Northwest Territories and Nunavut.

Slips, trips, and falls remain a major cause of injury in the workplace. Risk is higher from autumn to spring, with most incidents occurring in winter. During winter months, WSCC manages an average of one claim per day. At least one incident during each winter month is due to a slip, trip, or fall, resulting in major time loss from work.
