This book is a comprehensive report by Commissioner Sir William Meredith on the laws related to employers' liability for compensating their employees for workplace injuries or industrial diseases. It is the result of an inquiry commissioned by Lieutenant Governor Sir John Morison Gibson in 1910, with the goal of reviewing current legislation and proposing changes to better protect workers. The report delves into the adequacy of Ontario's laws, examines compensation systems in other countries, and weighs the merits of different approaches. The author argues that the current system fails to provide just compensation and that the risks of workplace accidents and illnesses should be considered industry risks covered by industries. The report also discusses contentious issues such as the role of employee negligence, the impact on employers, and the appropriate level of compensation. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the historical development of workers' compensation laws, offering a nuanced analysis of the complex issues surrounding employer liability and employee rights.
