Injury Package - Workplace Injury or Illness (WSIB)

All work-related incidents, illnesses and injuries must be reported by completing the Illness or Injury Incident Report Form [1] and submitting it to Occupational Health and Wellness (OHW) by fax 519-780-1796 or upload to the OHW Secure Drive [2] within 24 hours of the incident.

In the event of a workplace injury or illness, where outside medical assistance is required (health care) or may potentially be required an Injury Package [3] must be obtained by the employee, usually provided by the Supervisor. This package includes: the WSIB Employee Report of Injury/Disease (From 6), WSIB Functional Abilities Form (Form 8), a letter to the employee, and a letter to the health care practitioner.

The Form 8 must be completed by a physician or regulated healthcare practitioner and returned by the employee to OHW by fax 519-780-1796 or upload to the OHW Secure Drive [2] before the next workday.
