Yellowknife, NT / Iqaluit, NU (November 13, 2025) – The Workers’ Safety & Compensation Commission (WSCC) is pleased to announce the projects selected for funding under the Occupational Health and Safety Funding Program for 2026.

A total of just over $1M will provide funding to five organizations to help reduce work-related injuries and illnesses through education, capacity building, and training initiatives. 

Supportive communication should be part of everyday workplace culture — but especially when an employee is injured or ill and away from work. These conversations reduce isolation, support recovery, and create the foundation for a successful return to work.
