The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) is an independent agency of the Ontario government that provides workplace injury insurance and promotes health and safety across the province.
WSIB supports both employees and employers by offering no-fault insurance coverage in the event of work-related injuries or illnesses. If a worker is injured on the job, WSIB helps cover medical expenses, wage loss benefits, and rehabilitation services, ensuring individuals receive the care and support they need to recover and return to work safely.
For employers, WSIB provides insurance protection, return-to-work programs, and health and safety resources to help maintain safe workplaces and reduce the risk of injuries.
At its core, WSIB is committed to:
Promoting safe and healthy work environments
Supporting injured workers in recovery and return to work
Providing fair and efficient insurance coverage
Helping employers meet their legal and safety obligations
