At last count, the WSIB Appeal Tribunal has in excess of 8,000 cases awaiting appeal from claims denied by the WSIB. Why? Because after years of “low ball” employer premiums to the compensation system, a huge unfunded liability became a government/employer concern. Their solution, deny worker claims rather than impose premiums equal to the injuries and fatalities suffered in Ontario’s workplaces. In effect, the decades old agreement whereby workers gave up the right sue in exchange for a fair Compensation system has been set aside by their action. Workers can no longer sue, but fair compensation has been removed from the system.
