Comments on: Injured workers join forces demanding change to WSIB system, labour laws /dcn/news/ohs/2021/06/injured-workers-join-forces-demanding-change-to-wsib-system-labour-laws Canada's construction news Sat, 05 Jun 2021 00:02:00 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.9.3 By: Christine Nugent /dcn/news/ohs/2021/06/injured-workers-join-forces-demanding-change-to-wsib-system-labour-laws#comment-15446 Sat, 05 Jun 2021 00:02:00 +0000 /?p=241449#comment-15446 I agree with Paul Taylor’s comments and would add that the decisions are made by making of rules as they go and in the interest of employers. Non union workers can use the office of the Worker Adviser to appeal unjust denials but are waiting 1 and 2 years before they have access to their legal assistance. Unacceptable!

Not just by Ontario’s WSIB but all of Canada’s WCBs and WorkSafes. Shown by America’s WCBs and Autralia’s WorkSafes.
Injured workers are stigmatized and treated horribly.
This is all due to one common factor
A COMPLETE LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY!
If or you break the law, kill someone, hurt some we go to jail. Yet the WSIB/WCB/WorkSafes are above the Rule of Law.
This is because the courts treat the WCB/WSIB/WorkSafe as if they were their baby sister!
