Synopsis

This book presents the findings of an official inquiry into workplace injuries and offers proposals for a just compensation law. The author, a prominent judicial figure, conducted an exhaustive examination of compensation laws in many countries to determine their effectiveness and fairness. In addition to examining existing laws, the author consulted with experts representing workers, business owners, insurance companies, and many others. This book considers the pros and cons of different compensation models and explains why the author believes a collective liability system with provisions to ensure adequate funding, like that used in Germany, is the best option for Ontario. Thoughtfully organized and clearly written, this study will be of interest to anyone concerned about workplace safety and the rights of injured workers. It provides a comprehensive analysis of a pressing social problem and offers a well-reasoned proposal for reform.
