Conversations in the field of workers compensation and health & safety in Ontario, Canada and beyond.
The WSIB has announced major staff reductions, cutting hundreds of jobs across Ontario. These cuts raise important questions for injured workers: waiting times, the quality of decision making, and access to benefits and support that injured workers depend on.
In this latest episode of Labour Pains, staff lawyer Tebasum Durrani is speaking with Harry Gosslin, President of CUPE Local 1750, which represents WSIB employees.
