Reporting An Injury 

If you get injured at work you must report it to your employer immediately and to the WSCC.  Here's a checklist of what you need to do:

  • Get immediate medical attention if necessary
  • Tell your healthcare provider that you were hurt at work and ask them to send your medical reports to the WSCC.
  • Tell your employer you are hurt.
  • Fill out the WSCC Claim: Worker's Report of Injury form and send it to the WSCC as soon as possible.
  • Ask your employer to send their completed WSCC Claim: Employer's Report of Injury form to the WSCC within 3 days of your incident (as per legislation).

You can learn more about the claims process by viewing the Claims Process Map.

WSCC offers a new convenient way to report workplace injuries.  To report by email, send your incident details or a detailed message to Northwest Territories Claims Services or Nunavut Claims Services. 

If you need help, or have questions, call the WSCC in the Northwest Territories at 1-800-661-0792, or in Nunavut at 1-877-404-4407.
