WSIB, formerly known as the Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB), assists return to work and provides insurance for injuries and illnesses incurred in workplaces covered under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act.
Our office can make inquiries into the status of your claim. We do not, however, handle appeals.
If you are unionised, your union must assist you with your WSIB claim. If you are not unionised and have no representation, the Office of the Worker Adviser (OWA) provides free services and helps you with your claim.
You can call your local Mississauga OWA at:
10 Kingsbridge Garden Circle, Suite 512
Mississauga, ON L5R 3K6
Tel.: (905) 568-2359
Fax: (905) 568-1086
Toll Free: 1-800-267-3949 (905)
Arrange to speak to someone who specialises in giving advice over the phone.
If you need more help than can be provided over the phone, you can go in to the office for a meeting to discuss your problem. The OWA also represents workers on appeals at the WSIB and up to the final level of appeal at the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Tribunal.
If you wish to have our office look into your claim, please contact us.
