Board shields unsafe job sites - MOIRA WELSH, Toronto Star, Ontario, Canada
Ontario companies that use an army of temporary workers are hiding a dirty secret behind their glowing safety records.
That's because the province's worker insurance program protects the company job sites where accidents occur, yet gives big financial penalties to the temporary agency that sent the worker to the job.
A loophole in the rules of the province's Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) system is to blame.------------------------------------------- posted 7:20 AM :: reference link ::
