Demystifying the WCB.

Blue Collar exists to resolve predicaments related to workers’ compensation. By assisting workers and employers, we help minimize the aggravation, suffering, and needless expenditures associated with WCB difficulties.

With years of experience, an impressive collection of qualifications, and hundreds of satisfied clients — it’s no surprise that Blue Collar’s growing clientele is driven by word-of-mouth referrals and recommendations. 

Our resume includes senior management and executive leadership experience across public and private sectors. Constructive engagement with administrative bodies such as the Workers’ Compensation Board is what we do best.

Blue Collar consultants hold an advanced designation in disability management from the University of Fredericton, as well as being certified and by the American Petroleum Institute and The Advocates’ Society.

MOVING THE CHAINS

In sport as in business, success requires determination, teamwork, and a sound strategy. On the corporate gridiron, an expanding bureaucracy, economic challenges, and less-obvious threats like WCB uncertainties stand between you and the goal line.

Blue Collar’s assignment on your team is largely defensive in nature; that is, to protect against bureaucratic blitzes, boost your profits, and give you space to focus on more strategic matters. As a member of your team, BCC plays a specialized but crucial role.

MOUNTING OBLIGATIONS

More than ever, employers are required to accommodate, reinstate, & care for disabled workers. These obligations apply both to physical and mental disablement.

Courts and Commissions have increased the sum of damages awarded to people mentally injured at work by some 900% in recent years. Unfortunately, many employers will remain unaware of these legal requirements until confronted with a WCB claim, lawsuit, or complaint brought against them. BCC helps manage the risks that relate to WCB law. 

COLLABORATIVE APPROACH

Your experience with WCB depends on the particular case worker assigned to a claim, their interpretation of policy and procedure, respective caseload, experience level, as well as current knowledge of changing legislation.

To control for these variables, we combine knowledge of workers’ comp policy with a creative and diplomatic approach to Board interaction. This collaborative strategy aims for consensus and reduces the role of chance and variability in claim outcomes.
