P.E.I. employers feel WCB fails to meet fairness expectations By Jim Day, The Guardian
Carol Anne Duffy, CEO of the Workers Compensation Board of P.E.I., said the survey provides important feedback from employers. She said the findings will help establish a benchmark to permit tracking of organizational performance on key indicators.

“The results of the survey assess the WCB favourably in most areas of service,’’ she said.

However, she said, the survey indicates areas for improvement, such as factors relating to fairness, frequency of contact, young worker education, more useful Web site information and increased employer involvement in decision making.

Employers a no show at WCB CBC Prince Edward Island

"There's more injured workers here than there are employers, and it seems strange to me," says Wanson Hemphill, an employee with the Employers Council of P.E.I.
