This position reports directly to the OHS Manager and supports organizational compliance with WorkSafeBC and Alberta WCB / OHS requirements, while maintaining a compassionate, employee-centered approach.

• Coordinate and administer occupational (WorkSafeBC / WCB) and non-occupational injury and illness claims across BC and AB.
• Support disability management, accommodation, and return-to-work planning in collaboration with managers and external providers.
