• Employment Insurance

• Alberta Employment Standards

• Alberta Human Rights Act (employment-related discrimination)

• Alberta Workers' Compensation Act

• CPP disability

• employer short and long term disability

The WRC has helped workers become entitled to more than of $58,000,000 in benefits and unpaid earnings since 2004.
