Employment Injuries: Compensation and Financial Costs for the Employer

An accident has occurred in the workplace and you want to know your rights and obligations as an employer?

You wish to limit the cost of employment injuries in your workplace?

We intervene efficiently as consultants or as attorneys in any situation involving compensation and financing of employment injuries pursuant to the Act Respecting Industrial Accidents and Occupational Diseases (AIAOD).

Compensation

We advise our clients regarding the eligibility and the consolidation of an employment injury. When disputes arise, we prepare the necessary expert mandates. We also represent our clients before the Commission des normes, de l’équité, de la santé et de la sécurité du travail (CNESST) and the Administrative Labour Tribunal (formerly the CSST and CLP).

Financing

We assist employers in all aspects of the analysis and management of the financial aspects of their files. We assess and dispute, where necessary, the accuracy of determinations of the CNESST regarding the unit of classification adopted and the calculation of the costs that are attributed to your file. 

We also assist in designing company profiles, and in audits and recovery of costs arising out of employment injuries, cost-sharing proposals or other similar requests.

Training

We also offer clients training seminars on any other issue related to the application of the AIAOD and its regulations.

Impartition

In cases where you have retained the services of an outsourced employee to work in-house, you can also rely upon us to handle the day-to-day management of your occupational health and safety records.
