WCB - Alberta, working together with our partners, will significantly and measurably reduce the impact of workplace illness and injury on Albertans. The world we live in is constantly changing; as people and as organizations, we are constantly challenged to improve. At WCB-Alberta, we want to get better at what we do because our work impacts the lives of Albertans and their families. To help us do this, we developed a plan that builds on our past and provides a clear focus for our future. This process led us to identify four strategic themes that guide all areas of our business: commitment to decision fairness, focus on a safe return to work, leveraging prevention, and financial stability.
