Read all about it ... Workmen Compensation (This"is the first in a series dealing with various aspects of , Workmen's Compensation in Ontario: Reader questions and comments are invited.) Just over 58 ears ago, in May of 1914, Ontario which became effective January 1, 1915, em- bodying an approach based on an entirely new set of principles in providing the proVince's workers with pfotection against often disastrous results of being injured in the course of their work. Based on recommendations ‘following a three-year study of compensation systems throughout the world by former provincial Chief Justice, Sir William Meredith, the Ontario Workmen's Compensation Act Of 1914 was advanced "mode.' legislation for its time. Amongst the 1914 Act's in- novative provisions: Payment of compensation was guaranteed through establish- ment of a special fund raised by levies on the province's em- ployers. It was no longer a question of whether management felt inclined to compensate an injured worker or could afford to do so. The cost of providing compensation was to be shared by all em- ployers and incorporated as a cost of being in business in On- tario. Anyone suffering a work in- jury was entitled to Compen- sation as a matter of right, regardless of negligence on anyone's part. A sharp depar- ture from not only having to prove negligence on the part of the employer, but also to get around the "assumption of risk" tactic under which some em- ployerl. had formerly argued that employees in certain categories should have been` aware of and accepted the possibility . of injury because of the nature of their work. There was to be no further recourse to the courts fbr damages. With compensatidn guaranteed, as a matter of right, the need for costly, to both em- ployer and employee, and often bitter, long drawn out litigation was eliminated. In the more than half a cen- tury since Sir William Meredith established major objectives and set out basic framework under which they might be achieved, Workmen's Compensation in Ontario has maintained leader- ship in this vital field of social legislation. The Act and its regulations establish the benefits - financial, medical and rehabilitation - to which an irijured' workman is entitled. It is the responsibility of the Workmen's Compen- sation Board, Ontario, to make certain an injured workman gets his full entitlement. In broad outline, this is what Workmen's Compensation in ,Ontario is all about. Details of the system and the methods by which the tioard fulfills its 'responsibilities in today's com- plex socio-economic environ- ment will be discussed in future columns. 40MMINIUM111111411.
