Summary
**Trigger warning: this episode contains a special segment that discusses human trafficking, sexual assault, and bodily harm. AMTA's Kelsey Hipkin chats with returning Steering Change guest, Deborah Nilsen , Industry Specialist, Workers’ Compensation Board - Alberta (WCB). We have noticed that at each event, specifically our Safety Summits, where Deb and/or her colleagues present, there are many questions as a follow-up. So we posed the question on our AMTA socials and myAMTA and asked you, our Members, our listeners, and the general public, for questions for WCB-Alberta. And you delivered. In our conversation, we review the questions posed by our audience, including examples of modified duties and what an employer can provide for their workers, strategies for a company to cut down on their WCB premiums, what employers can do if they disagree with the outcome of a claim, and more. As well, in this episode, we have a special segment with Heather Fry , Director of Industry Training, TAT (Truckers Against Trafficking). We discuss TAT’s Harriet Tubman Award and stories of past recipients and nominees, as well as the free training offered by TAT. *Trigger warning of human trafficking, sexual assault, and bodily harm.
