In a recent unique case before the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) (responsible for enforcing the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act and adjudicating worker injury claims) was found to violate the Human Rights Code on the ground of disability. The case, Lawson v. Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, involved a permanently injured worker and the WSIB’s processes for entitlement to health benefits.
