S. Recine — Appeals Resolution Officer

Worker v. Employer, 2024 CanLII 44862

Worker's objection to long-term loss of earnings benefit rate recalculation denied.

The worker objected to the recalculation of their long-term loss of earnings (LOE) benefit rate following a workplace injury.

The worker argued that the recalculation was unfair because it did not adequately consider overtime earnings and caused financial hardship.

The Appeals Resolution Officer found that the recalculation correctly applied WSIB policy regarding long-term average earnings for workers in permanent employment, and that there are no exceptions permitting adjustments based on compassionate grounds or financial need.

The worker's objection was denied.
