Another WSIB win worth sharing ✔️
We are pleased to have successfully secured a Non-Economic Loss (NEL) award for a client following the acceptance of a Permanent Impairment (PI) related to a workplace injury.
What does this mean?
👉When WSIB determines that a workplace injury results in lasting impairment, it assigns a percentage rating to reflect the degree of permanent functional impact. That rating is then used to calculate a lump-sum NEL benefit intended to recognize the long-term effects of the injury on an individual’s quality of life.
📋These determinations are based on medical evidence and the WSIB’s rating system and guidelines. The outcome can vary significantly depending on how the impairment is assessed and documented.
If you’ve received a WSIB decision and are unsure what it means — or whether you may have options — it is important to seek clarification and understand your rights.
