A man contacted our Office in frustration after the WSIAT heard only one of several claims he had filed, when he was expecting to have them all heard at the same time. Our inquiries determined that the mixup was due to the Office of the Worker Advisor failing to complete the internal appeals process at the WSIB. The Office of the Worker Advisor formally apologized to the man and expedited his appeal, which was ultimately successful.
