THE YEAR AHEAD
The Road to 2030: Our Plans and Progress
Moving Forward With a Purpose
Our vision for Nova Scotia is one where more of the workforce is protected from workplace injury than they are today. Our Protect More Strategic Plan 2024-2030 and yearly operational plans provide the path for getting there.
Accountable, Strategic, Proactive: This is WCB now.
We're different now. 2025 was a year of big changes - and our annual report highlights the improvements we're making that are redefining how we support the Nova Scotians who count on us. Safer workplaces, better service, and more people returning safely to work after an injury.
Highlights:
• Lowest injury rate ever
• More people back to work
• Strongest financial position yet
2026 Operational Plan
In 2026, we are setting higher performance targets that build on our progress in prevention, return to work, and exceptional service delivery. With stronger expectations in place, our focus is on acting earlier, working together across the system, and delivering better outcomes for workers and employers across Nova Scotia.
