The Workers’ Safety and Compensation Board has implemented service standards to better serve our clients.
Service Standards address the timeliness of decision making and the services that the board provides to Yukoners. They are a public commitment to a measurable level of performance that clients can expect under normal circumstances.
They help clarify service expectations and help ensure accountability for service performance from both a provider and client perspective.
We recommend contacting us to book an appointment with one of our staff, or if you have any questions. We will do our best to accommodate clients walking into the office without an appointment
