Vocational services

If your injury leaves you with work restrictions so a job change is needed, vocational services can be arranged.

These services may include:

  • career counselling
  • job-finding skills development
  • help with job searches
  • opportunities for on-the-job training
  • formal vocational training

To reduce the effect of your injury, the Saskatchewan Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB) could pay for modifications to your home, vehicle or workstation.

Learn more about benefits and assistance for injured workers.

If your case manager refers you to a vocational rehabilitation specialist for a personal care assessment, you may qualify for a personal care allowance.
