WCB and You.
** CORRECTION - WCB is DEFERRING NOT WAIVING premiums for 3 months.
Plates that expired Nov/2019 DO NOT qualify for the extended deadline of August. We are working to see what this means for you.
1st Aid update: This from OHS below. I am working to clarify from the Individual providers what this means still.
In Nova Scotia we do not certify First Aid training service providers. Rather we recognize those that are certified by other jurisdictions. As such we are not able to offer extensions or modifications to training delivery. We plan to evaluate each situation around training at the workplace on a case by case basis but plan to be reasonable based upon access to training and items beyond the workplace control. In most workplaces more than one person is trained in first aid so anticipate limited impact and that most will have some coverage in place. We fully appreciate and understand the need to be reasonable if a certification has recently lapsed.
St. John Ambulance: They will be offering a 3 month extension to expiring training.
Red Cross: For any expiration dates between March - June, there will be a 90 day extension from the date of expiry.
