Over 4,000 WSIB employees walked off the job in Ontario and employers like you are left wondering what happens next. In this special episode of the Workers Comp Simplified podcast, I break down what’s going on, why it’s happening, and what you need to do to protect your company — today, not tomorrow.

We’re talking real talk — what to do with claims, how to handle communication, and how to stop depending on WSIB to rescue you when they can’t even help themselves right now.

You have a plan and it's not working. You can't make sense of the situation, but your team is looking to you to guide them to achieving the goal.

How you react in chaotic situations can be the difference between a fantastic come back story or a complete breakdown.

In this episode, I talk about how I help clients bring their teams back from the brink. What strategies I took from pro sports to help folks like you achieve the goals you want even when they don't start the way you wanted.
