URGENT: Tell your MPP to end age discrimination TODAY!
As MPPs return to the legislature, it is exremely important that they continue to feel the pressure to end WSIB's age discrimination against older injured workers. Here are a few things you can quickly...
buff.ly
Please take one minute to write the Minister of Labour and your MPP and ask them to end #WSIB age discrimination and older injured worker poverty, using the simple tool at buff.ly/nVkVAdP
Did you know #WSIB cuts injured worker benefits off at age 65, whether they planned on working longer or not? Did you know those workers lost all their CPP contributions while they were injured, and will live in poverty? Hear our stories and write your MPP by visiting buff.ly/4dU72bk
Julie was badly injured while working at a cafe. She had to fight #WSIB for years to get benefits, then they cut her off because of her age. Help us end WSIB Age discrimination by watching Julie's video and writing your MPP. Visit linktr.ee/RightsDontRetire to do both. #RightsDontRetire
Did you know that #InjuredWorkers lose their wage loss benefits at age 65 even if they planned to work longer? Did you know that they lose their pension contributions for the entire time that they are unable to work? If a work injury leaves you unable to work for life, that should not mean poverty.
What is workers compensation? What can I expect if I get injured? What do I do if something goes wrong? Tomorrow at 1pm, our friends at Injured Workers Community Legal Clinic will give a "WSIB 101" educational. Register at tinyurl.com/IWMar25th
