COVID-19 update

We’re in this together, Alberta. Do you have questions about COVID-19 and WCB? Our COVID-19 information page explains what you can expect from us and what temporary changes to our programs and services mean for you.

The Government of Alberta recently announced premium relief measures for private sector employers. Refund cheques will be issued beginning April 6 to employers who have made payments towards their 2020 premiums. We expect to have all cheques sent out by the end of April. You do not need to call in to request reimbursement. For more information, see our premium relief fact sheet.
