The Workers' Compensation Board is looking for three interns to assist the Board's Paid Family Leave program to develop written narrative procedures that will be used by internal business units to support the processing of PFL cases. In addition, the student interns will assist with the development of test cases that will be used to test the technology system enhancements to ensure that everything meets the business needs.
