    WCB Launches New Web Site Canada NewsWire
    Every day, 24 Nova Scotians are seriously injured on the job, giving Nova Scotia one of the highest rates of workplace injuries in Canada. The WCB was tasked in 2003 with spearheading the effort to reduce the human and economic toll of workplace injuries.

    Other Web sites operated by the Workers' Compensation Board include the recently launched workplace safety site, www.worksafeforlife.ca, part of a comprehensive social marketing program aimed at reducing the number of workplace injuries in Nova Scotia. This site also features an innovative interactive safety game that targets young workers to start thinking about the importance of safety in their lives. Another site, www.youngworker.ns.ca, is dedicated to providing young workers with information on how to stay safe on the job.
