On September 6, we wrote about the WSIB’s new Rate Framework (read about it here). The public consultation on the draft policies, which was originally scheduled to end tomorrow, October 13, has been extended to December 5, 2017. During the consultation, the WSIB invites stakeholders to make submissions on the seven draft policies developed to support the implementation of the new Rate Framework. Employers that wish to participate in this consultation can review the consultation materials on the WSIB Rate Framework Policy Consultation page and provide their feedback to consultation_secretariat@wsib.on.ca.

The WSIB has committed to publishing the final policies to support the implementation of the new Rate Framework at least one year before they come into effect. The target implementation date for the new Rate Framework is January 1, 2020.
