In the leadup to Injured Workers’ Day, our office is hosting an online roundtable discussion that will compare and contrast the challenges facing health & safety and workers’ compensation systems in the United States and Canada. The conversation will feature experts, advocates, activists, and injured workers from both countries, and will take place Friday March 31st at 1pm. Participants will include:
- Glenn Shor (Lecturer – University of California Berkeley)
- Orlando Buonastella (Community Legal Worker – IWC)
- Alec Farquar (Advocate)
- Steve Mantis (Injured Worker / Activist – Ontario Network of Injured Workers’ Groups)
