Introduction
The Canadian injury compensation system is known as Federal Worker’s Compensation service (FWCS) of the Labour Program administers the Government Employee Compensation Act (GECA) (Government of Canada, 2022). This program takes care of workers and labour who are working in Canada by providing them facilities for medical treatment, protection of salary if they suffered work related injury or any occupational disease. Apart from this the employees who are working for federal government inside and outside the country are alo protected against any injury on job, if they get sick due to occupational disease and if any of the are slain on duty.
Other (most) laborers are covered by commonplace specialists' pay frameworks, regulated by Workers' Compensation Boards. Under all frameworks, the harmed laborer for the most part can get such monetary advantages as clinical guide and recovery and wages during downtime from work.
Problems
1) Compensation and insurance law varies province to province
Employer perspective
The program of worker’s compensation is run by government and it differs state to state because they have their own insurance programs. In order to employ Canadian workforce employer has to check rules of each state and b ready to comply with them (Barnetson, Foster & Matsunaga-Turnbull, 2018). The employer has to open an account in each province where it wants to operate. for instance if a company is operating in Ontario and Alberta so it has to register with the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) of the provinces respectively.
The rules are so complex that it makes matter even worse for employers because for Alberta employer can pre-register but for Ontario he needs joining date, in Nova Scotia employer acnnot open an account until there are minimum three employees to start with.
Employee perspective
If an employee is working for more than one employer or in different provinces simultaneously he lingers between the rules of two states and remain unsure about which province law will be applicable to him (Lippel & Walters, 2019).
2) Calculation of compensation
Another problem was reported by forum of injured workers that there is a discrimination against temporary foreign workers (TFW) because when a worker faces permanent disability after rehabilitation the WCB evaluates what work can be done by the worker and according to that they determine the pension. This has created biasness on the basis of their pre-conceived notion because when they reach the final amount they deduct it from the last drawn compensation amount (Kazi, Ferdous, Rumana, Vaska & Turin, 2019). This lands up the worker in the trouble because either they had to head their homes or if they want to fight the case they had to support themselves on their own.
