Following rally, Thunder Bay editorial calls for assessment of WSIB

December 16, 2014

“WSIB savings come at a cost”: Editorial (Chronicle Journal, Dec. 10, 2014)   (no longer available on newspaper website)

Article reports on Thunder Bay & District Injured Workers’ Support Group rally outside MPP Michael Gravelle’s office to draw attention to impact of WSIB cost-cutting. Editorial notes “the size of the reductions in service suggest this exercise is abusive in its own right. It’s time for the government to order a realistic assessment of the program, with input from injured workers, employers and experienced WSIB personnel, in order to implement changes that benefit all legitimate WSIB applicants..”.
