British Columbia Northern Companion Guide: The Crossing

You get hurt on a site outside Terrace, and the person who can assess it properly is in Prince George. Vancouver, if it turns out to be complicated.

Every one of those trips is part of your claim, and WorkSafeBC will want them itemised rather than estimated. Write them down as they happen and you never have to sit down months later trying to remember what a February drive cost you.

What's inside?

• Which door to knock on first in British Columbia, and in what order. WorkSafeBC travel to begin with, then the Travel Assistance Program, and Northern Health Connections, BC Bus North and Hope Air on top of that
• A travel log with room for the distance, whether someone had to come with you, and whether you stayed the night
• A costs and receipts page that adds up what getting to your own care has cost you
• A call log for every conversation with WorkSafeBC, and a follow-up template so you can put it in writing afterward
• A daily recovery record, and a weekly check on what you can and can't do yet

How does it fit with your other guides?

Your National Workplace Injury Recovery Guide is where the day to day lives: symptoms, appointments, calls, costs. Your British Columbia Workplace Injury Companion Guide carries the deadlines, the forms and the appeal route through the Review Division, then WCAT. This one covers the travel, which up north tends to be the part that wears people down.

25 pages. Fillable PDF with 121 form fields, so you can type into it on a phone, a tablet or a computer, and it opens in any PDF reader. Instant download.
