What is WSIB?
The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) is Ontario’s agency that provides no-fault benefits to workers
who are injured on the job or develop a work-related illness. “No-fault” means you don’t have to prove your employer
did anything wrong—you only need to show that your injury or illness is connected to your work.
Key concepts
- Eligibility: You must be a covered worker injured in the course of employment or have an occupational disease linked to work.
- Reporting: Workers, employers, and health-care providers each have reporting duties. Delays can affect benefits.
- Benefits: may include:
- Income replacement while you can’t work or can only work reduced hours.
- Health care and rehabilitation (treatment, devices, therapies).
- Return-to-Work (RTW) & Work Transition assistance.
- Permanent impairment assessments and awards (where applicable).
How we help
- Case mapping: We identify the benefits you qualify for and the evidence needed.
- Form strategy: We ensure accurate, consistent reporting across all forms.
- Medical evidence: We request, organize, and present persuasive records.
- RTW planning: We advocate for safe and suitable work and accommodations.
- Dispute resolution: We handle reviews and appeals when decisions are wrong.
Common roadblocks (and our fixes)
- Not work‑related” denials → We build timelines, witness statements, and expert opinions.
- “No objective findings” → We highlight functional limits, clinical notes, and daily impacts.
- Premature RTW pressure → We insist on restrictions that reflect medical reality.
- Gaps in treatment → We coordinate with providers to document ongoing limitations.
Heads‑up on deadlines: WSIB and appeal timelines are strict. Some steps require action within weeks.
