Workplace NL is giving more money to around 24,000 workers due to a systems error.

They say that workers who received wage-loss benefits, retirement benefits, and dependency benefits between July 1, 2016 and December 31, 2022 will receive around $2.00 per week that they received the benefit plus interest.

The error was caused when the payment system was not updated when the non-refundable provincial tax credit changed from 7.7 to 8.7 per cent on July 1, 2016.

They say most workers will likely receive less than $120.

WorkplaceNL expects to start to provide more information and payments to workers in late June 2023.
