April 1 deadline changed to May 1, 2020. 

We know that employers have additional pressures managing the risks surrounding COVID-19.  The Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission (WSCC) made the decision today to extend all Employer Assessment Payments that were due on April 1. Your new due date for that payment is May 1, 2020.

At this time, all other payments are due as set out in existing payment plans with the WSCC.

We know that employers and workers in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories are concerned about the risk of exposure to COVID-19. 

Employers have a responsibility to develop policies and procedures to protect their workers and to keep them informed. Employers should develop or review business continuity or emergency response plans, and prepare proactively for the possibility that COVID-19 could impact their workplace. 

WSCC is performing maintenance on our website beginning at 4 PM Friday, February 28, to 10 AM, Monday, March 2. During this time, you may experience slower internet service. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please call 1-800-661-0792 to report a serious workplace incident or injury.
