Submission re Bill 109, Employment and Labour Statute Amendment Act 2015

November 25, 2015 by IWC Community Legal Clinic

Many of the injured workers IWC assists are women, immigrants, and work in non-union or precarious employment situations. The Clinic supports the bill’s proposed amendment to the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act (s.22) which would target direct and indirect claims suppression but suggests it does not adequately address the range of indirect inducements by employers used to discourage vulnerable workers from filing claims. Submission recommends instead that the only way to properly address claims suppression is to get rid of its source – to eliminate experience rating.
