What happens if I have a dispute with my employer about return to work? First, ask your adjudicator to help you resolve the dispute. If this is not successful, then you can request return to work mediation. Return to Work Mediation is a conflict-resolution process based on fairness, privacy, self-determination, and the best interests of you and your employer. Within the parameters of the return to work provisions of the Act and the WSIB’s policies and procedures, a mediator can reduce the obstacles to communication, help you explore alternatives, and address the needs of everyone involved. The goal of mediation is to help you and your employer arrive at your own solution, because decision-making authority rests with you.
