Lawfulness of Policy Referrals Withdrawn Due to Board of Directors' Policy Change
When the chair of WCAT receives a section 251 referral from a vice chair, as a courtesy, the panel's memorandum is disclosed to the chair of the board of directors of WorkSafeBC. As a result, sometimes the board of directors changes the criticized policy. Thus it becomes unnecessary for the WCAT chair to make a decision. In the following cases, the vice chairs subsequently withdrew the referral.
