The convergence of a depressed economy, high unemployment, and newly compensable psych claims caused WCB to incur a $250M shortfall last year.
And then the pandemic struck, adding fuel to the bonfire.
Employers should now budget for sharply higher WCB/group premiums, ballooning psych injuries related to depression/anxiety/burnout/bullying/harassment, plus COVID-driven business disruption.
