N2  - Canadian Workers Compensation Boards have recently been confronted with claims for compensation for disability related to workplace stress. Rules of adjudication applied to such claims are currently evolving in the 11 Canadian jurisdictions studied. This article describes the Canadian Workers' Compensation schemes and then proceeds to analyse the approach of the various provincial Boards to mental-mental claims. It explores some of the differences between the Canadian and American approaches to the issue of compensation for psychological workplace stress, offers hypotheses as to the reasons for the disparities, and looks at the future of such claims.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
