  • Waiting Periods and Direct Payments in Workers' Compensationances
    June 1998 Waiting Periods and Direct Payments in Workers’ Compensation (Prepared for the Royal Commission on Workers’ Compensation in British Columbia) by Morley Gunderson* and Douglas Hyatt** * Professor, Department of Economics and Centre for Industrial Relations, University of Toronto. ** Associate Professor, Scarborough College, Faculty of Management, and Centre for Industrial Relations, all of the University of Toronto, Research Associate, Institute for Policy Analysis, University of Toronto, and Senior Scientist, Institute for Work and Health. 1. Introduction At the time of introduction of workers’ compensation in North America, waiting periods were a prominent design feature. This appears, fundamentally, to be due to the heavy influence of the first jurisdictions to adopt compensation programs for work injuries on the jurisdictions that followed. The North American workers’ compensation system was heavily influenced by the German system, established in 1884 under Bismarck, to which both workers and employers both contributed. In Britain, the “Friendly Societies” in the pre-1880, were initially established to compensate injured workers and their families for death or disability associated with a workplace injury, without regard to fault. Workers’ paid for the cost of the system, but over time, employers agreed, either through collective negotiations or on their own accord, to assist in financing the societies. Frequently, the quid pro quo was an agreement that workers’ would not sue the contributing employer. In the United States, a number of early attempts to legislate workers’ compensation statutes were beaten back by the U.S. Supreme Court, which found many of the provisions of the legislation offensive to common law doctrine, including the absence of waiting periods (as a form of co-insurance).

  • 2012-2013 Benefits Policy Review: Pre-Existing Conditions
    2012-2013 Benefits Policy Review Pre-existing Conditions 1. Introduction The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) is responsible for providing benefits to workers who have a work-related injury or disease. Workers who are injured “by accident arising out of and in the course of their employment” or are impaired by “an occupational disease that occurs due to the nature of” their employment are entitled to compensation under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act, 1997 (WSIA)1. Prior to the introduction of workers‟ compensation legislation, employees who were injured at work were required to sue their employer to receive compensation. Due to the difficulties this presented, Ontario, followed by other Canadian jurisdictions, replaced the tort system for workplace injuries with a no-fault insurance scheme. The release of the Meredith Report2 led to the establishment of Ontario‟s compensation system in 1914, resulting in an historic compromise whereby workers would receive guaranteed benefits under a no-fault system that was paid for by employers who in return were protected against lawsuits. As set out in legislation, and to preserve the integrity and fairness of this system, the WSIB must draw a line between compensable work-related and non-compensable non-work-related injuries and disease. During the course of the recent Benefits Policy Review, led by Independent Chair, Jim Thomas, the challenges associated with “work-relatedness” and adjudicating claims involving pre-existing conditions became a focus of stakeholder submissions. As a result, although outside of the consultation's initial scope, Mr. Thomas addressed this issue at length in his Final Report3.

INTRODUCTION: I. I. PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Thank you for requesting stakeholder feedback on the review of the WCB Compensation system. CUPE (BC) appreciates the opportunity to comment on this extremely important review and hopes that the recommendations from this review will be implemented immediately.

This includes a complete review of the appellate tribunals and their respective policies and procedures. I.II. STAKEHOLDER INFORMATION: CUPE is Canada’s largest Union with over 680,000 members across the country and has more than 70 offices.2 CUPE represents workers in many sectors including health care, emergency services, education, early learning and child-care, municipalities, social services, libraries, utilities, transportation, airlines and more.

HISTORY OF STATUTE REVISIONS 631 History of Statute Revisions in the Provinces of Upper Canada, Canada and Ontario 1763 - 1791 The Treaty of Paris, 1763, ceded the French possessions in North America to Great Britain. On October 7th of that year a Royal proclamation introduced the law of England, both civil and criminal, into the whole of the ceded territor\-, and formed the Eastern portion of it into the Province of Quebec. The Governor of the new colony received power and direction "so soon as the state and circumstances of the colony would admit thereof, to summon and call a General Assembly", but, until this was done, the Gover- nor and Council were invested with "authority to make such rules and regulations as should appear to be necessan.' for the peace, order and good government of the Province". In 1774 the Quebec Act (14 Geo. Ill, c. 83, Imp.) was passed, by which French law was re-introduced in civil matters, and the limits of the Province of Quebec were enlarged, so as to include the whole of the territor\- after- wards formed into Upper Canada.

  • Some Reflections on the Woodhouse and Acc Legacy
    449 SOME REFLECTIONS ON THE WOODHOUSE AND ACC LEGACY Alan Clayton∗ In this summary of the symposium, Alan Clayton urges New Zealanders to recognize the uniqueness and importance of the original Woodhouse vision and the resulting Accident Compensation regime, but also encourages New Zealanders to look towards improving the system. Having placed the Woodhouse vision within its historical context, the author argues that it has stood the test of subsequent developments well but he criticises the failure to properly focus on accident prevention. While he notes a recent change in both political and administrative commitment to accident prevention, he believes that there is clearly still much work to be done. I INTRODUCTION This conference has brought together a diverse range of persons to consider a number of aspects of the origins and historical development of the New Zealand Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) scheme. It is an exercise whose utility has been enhanced by the participation – both directly as presenters and indirectly as audience interlocutors – of many of those who, in the words of the title of Dean Acheson's memoirs, were "present at the creation". In providing some form of commentary to these deliberations, I have chosen to follow the general contours of the conference's title, "Looking Back at Accident Compensation: Finding Lessons for the Future". First, "looking back". The ACC scheme represents one of the seminal events in a process of twelve decades of social policy experimentation in dealing with the consequences of personal trauma in society. In a process of foreshortening of perspective that often results from familiarity, most New Zealanders perhaps do not appreciate the uniqueness of, and boldness of vision that underpins, their everyday arrangements for dealing with personal injury.

  • Of the Supre.V.E Court of Ontario, Appellate Division
    SIR WILLIAM RALPH MEREDITH, C.J.O. 555 SI WILLIAM RALPH ME EDITH, CJ.®. AN APPRECIATION BY THE HONOURABLE MR. TUSTIcE FERGUSON. Of the Supre.v.e Court of Ontario, Appellate Division. By the death of Sir William Meredith the Bench and the Bar of Canada have lost an outstanding jurist, and 0anada a loyal and devoted public servant, indeed one of her greatest ,sons. We who were associated with him on the Bench have lost a peerless leader, a sincere and helpful friend ; a friend that we respected for his learning, ability and wisdom, and loved for his kindly humanity of heart. As a boy I attended Upper Canada College. The old school stood then at the corner of Simcoe and King Streets, and the legislative buildings at the corner of Simcoe and Wellington. In those days I frequently crossed the block to listen to the debates, and it was in this way that I gained my first knowledge of my political leader and my future Chief. At that early time I formed the opinion that Sir William made known to the Government his views and opinions with as much candor and freedom as he could or would use in ;disclosing there. to his own political followers, and that while in so doing he was performing a great pub- lic service by forewarning the Government of pitfalls and dangers, he was not thereby helping his own fol- lowers to office. When in after years it was my good fortune to take a seat on the Bench beside Sir William, I found that regardless of whom it helped or hurt he still continued to declare his views of an argument or proposition with the same candor and freedom as had characterized - his political leadership.
