Our President & CEO: Guy R. Kerr

“Ordinary people can do extraordinary things when they work together.”

This is the philosophy that has driven Guy Kerr since assuming the post of President & CEO of the Workers’ Compensation Board - Alberta in July 2002. A dynamic and committed leader, Guy has reinforced relationships inside and out of the organization, to make sure the workers’ compensation system remains effective for all stakeholders. Supported by a group of dedicated employees, Guy has led the organization to produce superior return-to-work, health care and vocational outcomes, and a secure financial foundation that will ensure future stability for the system.

Guy completed a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Calgary, a Public Relations diploma from Mount Royal College in Calgary, and a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Alberta.

A solid contributor to his community, he currently serves on the City of Edmonton Investment Committee and as a volunteer with Big Brothers of Edmonton.

“The best part about what I do,” says Guy, “is learning from the committed and enthusiastic people I work with. I am thankful and proud to be part of an organization full of people who share my commitment to continuous improvement. WCB staff has my respect and our clients teach me about perseverance every day."
