New data resource worth flagging for anyone in workforce development, HR, or public policy research: Datanb has released a WorkSafeNB / Travail sécuritaire NB dataset covering employment-related injury and disability claims across New Brunswick, including injury type, source of injury, occupation, claim status, and accident date.
This kind of data is a great starting point for exploring occupational health trends, workplace safety patterns, and how workers' compensation claims have shifted over time in our province. At the Centre for Learning Futures, we're always interested in how open data like this can inform research, curriculum, and community partnerships around workplace safety and skills development.
Researchers, students, and policy folks, worth a look: https://www.unb.ca/datanb/data/holdings/worksafenb-demographic-information.html?fbclid=IwcGRvZgFleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETE2VkhYbFpvaHQxQ2JCOGdYc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHq6lrpgERbfoBsooeFXZxb1zIQtg8cQm0FRz80yJIcXe5GGHfYbEPt31KcnI_aem_VOif9xQiJAa8xUPSmSNREA
