Ontario's Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) is facing criticism for planned premium reductions for employers in 2027. The Ontario Compensation Employees’ Union argues these savings should instead fund better support for injured workers. The union highlights that injured workers already receive compensation below the national average. Furthermore, the WSIB is reportedly planning hundreds of layoffs and closing ten regional offices. The union believes these actions will negatively impact services for injured workers.
