We work for you. legal matters Q A INjuRy LAw If I am injured at work can I sue or am I limited to receiving benefits from the workers Compensation? In Ontario the ability of a worker to sue depends on a number of things. It will depend on the type of business that employees you and who or what caused your injury. If your workplace is covered underWorkers Compensation you cannot sue your employer. There are however some limited instances when you may be able to sue another employer who is covered byWSIB. Or in other instances you may be able to sue third parties - if your injury was caused in part by a defective machine, equipment, or product (for instance if the product or machine was manufactured ,designed or supplied by a third party in another country) - if your injury was caused in part by equipment that was supplied on a rental or lease basis (without an operator) - if you were driving in the course of your employment and involved in a car accident with another vehicle whose driver or owner were not covered by Worker's Compensation- if your injuries were caused by the owner or occupier of a residential property if you had a slip and fall. Depending on the circumstances sometimes even if there is a third party to sue not suing and receiving Workers Compensation benefits is the best course of action. Other times proceeding with a lawsuit is in a worker's best interest. If you receive an Election Form (to receive WSIB benefits or sue a third party) from the WSIB that's an indication that there may in fact be a third party that you can sue. Even if you do not receive an Election and you suspect a third party who is not your employer caused your injury it would be wise to seek legal advice Halton Regional Police are on the lookout for three women wanted in a co-ordinated theft in Halton Hills. Police said the trio walked into the Roots store at Toronto Premium Outlets on Steeles Avenue at around 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 11 and went straight to the women's "sweat wall," and began "feeling the garments for security tags," according to Const. Linda Gardner. One of the women selected a hoodie and sweats and passed them to another woman as they walked to the back of the store. Then, police said, another women entered the change room with the two items. Mean- while, one of the women selected a shirt and a pair of sweatpants and concealed them in an orange Nike bag she had brought with her. One of the women then asked to be cashed out when staff became worried about the amount of time one woman was spending in the change room. The trio paid for most of the items but didn't pay for the items concealed in the Nike bag, police said. "The all exited the store," Gardner said. The women are described as being aged 18-30. One of them had black hair in a bun, black Adidas sweatpants and jacket, black purse and a tattoo on the right side of her neck. Another woman had grey leggings, a black jacket over a burgundy T-shirt and a tattoo on the right side of her neck. The third woman was wearing blue jeans, a blue jean jacket over a blue T-shirt, black scarf and a had large black purse.
