Workwell Audit Assitance

The Workwell program is an audit tool used by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board of Ontario to implement section 82(1) of the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act. The Government's purpose for the auditing tool is to identify companies through high claim costs, or frequency, and recoup those costs through fines based on the organization's audit score.

At Workplace Law we provide assistance from start to finish to ensure an employer's Health and Safety programs meet the requirements of the Workwell Audit.

Upon initial workplace assessment we provide a report detailing the cost, effort and time frame needed to meet the WSIB requirements.
