W.C.B. Advance. In the event the W.C.B. challenges initial coverage or, after going on W.C.B. benefits, the W.C.B. terminates such benefits because the Board has decided that the employee's disability is no longer related to the compensable injury, the employee will be entitled to a W.C.B. advance as specified below. If an employee is entitled to Long Term Disability and/or Weekly Indemnity benefits, pursuant to Section 9, the Employer shall process an employee's application for such benefits on the condition that should an appeal to the W.C.B. result in the payment of wage-loss benefits, that portion of the Long Term and/or Weekly Indemnity benefits paid to the employee by the Employer shall be reimbursed to the Employer either directly from the Board, or, if not possible, from the employee. At the Employer's option the employee will pursue the appeals procedure under the Workers' Compensation Board.
