Yellowknife, NT (November 28, 2022) – The Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut (WSCC) announces that the average employer assessment rate is remaining at $2.40 per $100 of assessable payroll, unchanged since 2020.
This is the base rate the WSCC uses as a starting point when setting individual subclass rates.
Subclasses are employers who have similar operations and share similar risks. Each employer pays a specific amount based on the group rate for their industry and the size of their payroll.
