The Brussels Post, 1966-01-06, Page 7Starting January 1st all farm employees join 2,000,000 other Ontario workers with complete protection under Workmen's Compensation. With the co-operation of farm em- ployers throughout the Province, the Ontario Workmen's Compensation Board is now able to provide full compensation protection starting January 1st. Protected how? With benefits up to $8654 a week if an employee is disabled for more than two calendar days by an on-the-job accident or related disease happening on or after January 1st. What about permanent disa- bility? lie's covered. Benefits in- elude all medical expenses and pen- sions for permanent disability. How about theworker's family ? In death cases there are allowances for funeral expenses and pensions for widows and children. Is this the same Workmen's Compensation that 2,000,000 men and women in other lines of work have protecting them? Exactly the same. What about the Farmer? He and his wife also can be covered by Workmen's Compensation, by making a special application to the Workmen's Compensation Board. And his Family? If they' work on the same farm and get a stated wage, they are automatically covered, as is the Farm Employee. Is there a charge to the Farm Employee for this? No. Farm em- ployers provide this protection through assessments based on their 1966 payroll, payable in August.
