October 1st, the OFL and ONIWG came together for our conference « Rise up for Injured and Ill Workers ».
Drawing on the lived experience of workers injured or made ill on the job as well as subject matter experts, our program provided information on key issues around claims suppression and occupational disease.
It was amazing to come together and strategize actions to advocate for workers and demand better for all.

Check out ISAC's reccs sent in to the Dept. of Finance on the proposed changes to the Disability Tax Credit. The proposed changes are a good start, but they must go further to ensure everyone who needs these supports can access them. https://t.co/9LBPqy7DJQ

WSIB's plan to close regional offices & cut 466 jobs will harm injured workers, employers, and communities across Ontario. We urge WSIB to stop these closures, conduct an impact analysis, and consult with stakeholders. Re: https://t.co/G4HXS77yoF
