No wonder they're expecting to run out of compensation money!

Yup.

Yup.

Depends on the employer. YMMV

The Emergency Services member may only require Temporary modified work.

If the member requires Permanent modified work, they will be relocated to a "Suitable" job classification.

If the pre-injury rate of pay is higher than the relocated position rate, then the pre-injury rate is to be maintained. It is understood that the pre-injury rate is subject to all wage increases negotiated.

Not so much behaving badly, but getting bad press.

OPP Charge 93 Year Old With Assault

This is the type of response you get when the system removes professional discretion. It has been Ministry policy for years that charges are to be laid in intimate partner incidents if the charge is made out (although I suspect in this case, 'intimate' is used loosely).

The senior's centre had to report the incident by law. The police had to lay a charge by policy. No copper is going to stick their neck out when there have been too many instances where discretion was exercised, it turned out not as planned and the cop was left twisting in the wind.

The Ministry spokesperson is being disingenuous by saying they don't direct charges; its policy clearly does.

No doubt this charge will go nowhere.
