RISK FREE WCB/WSIB WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COST RECOVERY

It’s usually how our clients first get to know us. Cost Recovery is a service that pays for itself right from the start. A detailed analysis of your Rate Framework, or provincial workers’ compensation account is undertaken to identify and recover any and all moneys that may have been overpaid to the applicable legislative body. Our review considers twenty different avenues of your account including classification, over payments, accident cost analysis, past and current experience rating refunds/surcharges and other actuarial issues pertaining to your WCB/WSIB Workers’ Compensation account. SEGA prides itself on exceeding the expectations of our clients by obtaining additional refunds in previously reviewed accounts. The work is performed from our offices so there is minimal time investment on your behalf.

What’s more, our fees are generated from the money we save you. If we are unable to obtain any savings, you owe us absolutely nothing.
