Work Act. These responsibilities are extensive and exist to try to make the workplace safe and prevent risks to health. Any failure to fulfil this important duty of care means that you have been left in harm’s way unnecessarily and quite possibly illegally. With regards to your particular injury or illness, ask yourself: did your employer fulfill their duty of care responsibilities to the letter? Was your health and welfare properly protected?

WOOSTER -- The Police Department had a mixed 2011, according to Chief Matt Fisher's first year-end report.
Overall, statistics showed 2011's calls for service remained relatively flat. But part one offenses -- the most serious crimes, such as rape and homicide -- saw a slight increase.
Injuries also marred 2011, with several officers taking extended time off, putting a strain on manpower throughout the year.
"2011 was hard on us," Fisher said. "We had more injuries than ever ... but this shows the men and women of this department have worked to do more with less and did their best to get the job done."
Patrolman Robert Henderson was off for nine months because of a work-related injury. He returned in August.
And in September, Victor Nedoma, shortly after his promotion to sergeant, was injured during a SWAT training session. He has been off since, but soon will undergo a third surgery to heal his left wrist.
