Guide to Worker Injury Management for BC Ski Hills
The Guide to Worker Injury Management for BC Ski Hills provides a clear process for assessing and managing workplace injuries in the ski industry. Developed by the CWSAA Risk & Safety Committee, WorkSafeBC, and go2HR, it outlines steps for handling minor, moderate, and major injuries—from first aid and injury assessment to suitable work offers and complex return-to-work (RTW) plans. The guide also emphasizes regular communication, documentation, and mental health support for injured workers. Employers can use this resource to improve injury recovery outcomes, meet WorkSafeBC requirements, and maintain safe operations throughout the ski season.
