Our workplace culture embraces Hope, Kindness, Collaboration, Innovation and Family. We offer meaningful benefits and perks that make a difference for you and your family.
Here are some of our benefits and perks that Full-time & Part – time employees receive:
First time user for PBC? Start by creating an account as a Plan Member and you’ll be able to see an overview what coverages you and your family members receive.
Once you log into your account, the main page will find all sorts of user friendly buttons. For a general scope of your benefits, there is a “learn about your membership” section, from here, you will find information on Group Benefits, Personal Health Insurance and Travel Insurance.
You can also submit any eligible claims online, just make sure to have a direct deposit set up and you will receive a confirmation in little as 2 business days!
Employees enrolled in the EFAP plan can access the benefit on the web portal, or by calling the EFAP provider Homewood. There’s no need for ID numbers for the EFAP plan, we only have it on the EFAP invoice for our premium billing purposes. When a member or their dependents call in to access EFAP they will be asked to identify their name and the name of their employer.
The web link is pbc-efap.ca and when you click on “sign up” at the top of the page you will be given the option to sign up as an employee or employer.
Eligibility for the EFAP benefit is more flexible than the core benefits. To qualify under Policy 79701 an employee needs to be a full-time or part-time status working at least 20 hours or more per week, and there is no waiting period.

must be enrolled in the plan. Employees who do not have a
choice about being enrolled cannot sign a waiver, and they
