Prevention Link’s Workplace Mental Health Injuries workshop is ideal for workers’ compensation representatives who have some case work experience looking to gain more knowledge on mental health injury claims.
It provides participants with a better understanding of mental health and illness, stigma and discrimination, how conditions are diagnosed and what treatment options are available.
It explores:
- Which mental health injuries are covered by WSIB policy and law;
- How such claims are adjudicated; and
- Permanent impairment ratings for work-related mental health injuries.
Additionally, legal principles are discussed, and case law examples and relevant resources are provided.
