Frequently Asked Questions About Workplace Injury Claims

What is WSIB claims management in plain language?

It's a structured way to manage workplace injury claims so incidents are reported properly, employees are supported, return-to-work happens sooner, and costs don't spiral.

Do you replace WSIB or a lawyer?

No. We don't replace the Board or provide legal advice. We manage the employer-side process, documentation, coordination, and strategy.

Can you help with appeals and objections?

Yes. We support reconsiderations and formal appeals where appropriate and help employers pursue cost relief opportunities.

What should we do on the day of an incident to protect the claim and the business?

Document early and clearly (what happened, where, witnesses, immediate response), communicate with the worker, and start thinking about suitable work options quickly, because return-to-work efforts and ongoing contact are core employer responsibilities.

What does "suitable work" mean in practice?

Generally, it's work that is safe, productive, and aligned with the worker's functional abilities while they recover. We help you identify realistic modified duties and document the offer properly to reduce downtime and keep the file clean.

Can you help reduce WSIB costs beyond just "processing the paperwork"?

Yes. Strong early documentation, consistent follow-up, and structured return-to-work planning are often the difference between a short file and one that drags on (which can affect costs and premiums). Where appropriate, we also support objections/appeals and cost relief strategy.

What size of business is this designed for?

Occ-ABILITY is designed for small businesses that don't have internal health & safety or occupational health teams but still face real WSIB and injury-related risk.
