Expert Health Care Professionals to Support Injured Worker Recovery
TORONTO, Nov. 5,
2015 /CNW/ - The Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) has announced
that it will release a report alleging that the Workplace Safety and
Insurance Board (WSIB) ignores opinions and recommendations from some
health care providers. Unfortunately, the OFL report was not shared
or discussed with the WSIB in advance, but we would be happy to
review any files that they would like to bring to our attention.
