Overview
The WSIB return-to-work process is complex. Employers must navigate multiple issues such as meeting return-to-work obligations, managing claim costs and addressing potential concurrent employment law issues.
Join us as we discuss best practices for effectively managing these challenges.
Format
This workshop will include both instructional components and interactive components that will give attendees the opportunity to apply some of the tools and fundamentals they have learned. The workshop will include a panel discussion that will provide attendees the opportunity to pose questions to our team of experienced WSIB practitioners. Attendees will also receive helpful written tools that will assist them in managing the return-to-work process.
