Information About

Workers Compensation Board Of Manitoba




The WCB was formed as a result of a compromise: injured workers gave up the right to sue employers in exchange for no-fault insurance in the case of work related injuries or illness, while employers agreed to pay for the system providing they would be protected from lawsuits.

The WCB is run by a Board of Directors that consists of 10 members appointed by the Government of Manitoba from nominations submitted by labour, employers and the public. The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is a non-voting member of the Board of Directors. The current Chairperson of the Board of Directors is Tom Farrell , and the current President and CEO is Doug Sexsmith .
