Does a Company Director Need to Register for UIF and Workman’s Compensation?

Whether a company director needs to register for UIF and Workman’s Compensation depends on their actual role in the business. A director who works for the company as an employee and receives a salary may need to be included for UIF and COIDA purposes. A director who only performs director duties and receives director’s fees may be treated differently. The important thing is not the title of “director”, but whether the person is actually working as an employee and receiving a salary.
