Make a Statement About Your Commitment to Health & Safety With COR

The Certificate of Recognition (COR) program rewards employers who go above and beyond the legal requirements of the Workers Compensation Act and Occupational Health & Safety Regulation by elevating their health & safety practices. COR-certified employers can receive an annual financial incentive of up to 10% of their WorkSafeBC premiums. What’s more, it’s free to register.

 

Achieving COR certification is a straightforward process that will bolster your company’s safety management system, enhance your reputation and save you time and money.

 

The COR program is available to large employers (20 or more employees). If you have fewer than 20 employees, you can check out the Small Employer Certificate of Recognition (SECOR) program.
