Fact sheet – Injured workers are part of the Fight for $15 and Fairness

April 3, 2017 by Ontario Network of Injured Workers Groups

The struggle for decent work and the struggle for decent workers’ compensation are inextricably linked. Workers who are in precarious and low-wage jobs are also at greater risk of being injured at work, less likely to report injury or unsafe working conditions, and much more likely to fall into poverty when injured. Fairness also means an end to deeming and “phantom jobs”.
