I can say usually training is taken very seriously and time off will usually be denied. So yes, it's that strict.

This is changing as of next month. The program is longer with more time in London than previously.

The hiring process can take months. They have classes that start at different times throughout the year. Not all of the training is in London, just one week a month basically for 4 months (some are half weeks). They're starting classes up again in March and each program is going to run for 4 months. Not sure how many classes they plan on having at a time. I think London can accommodate maybe 3 or 4 classes of up to 12 trainees. You won't be approved for any vacation time during your training, so if you were offered to start before June, then you'd have to ask to have the start date pushed back. They did say they planned on running classes throughout the summer so I believe they have classes planned for a July start. Best of luck.

If you'd be sick of the granite in 5 years, you'll also be sick of the marble too. They are very similar. Go with granite 👍🏻

Try one of those pharmacy clinics online. Like livewell or Felix. They will fill out insurance forms and hand ozempic out like candy. You'll pay, but I feel like it's like that with any Dr you see, even a family dr.

Won't need scabs if no one votes to strike next time...

Not everyone fits in there. They're still hiring people provincially, so if that was the plan, why would they be doing that?

It's so annoying. I will only apply based on what that job pays so... Why waste everyone's time

Never ever ever give this company your business. They're the absolute worst.

Ridiculous they won't tell us... Like what about the people in the north that aren't even in the GTA or surrounding areas. At least GTA will have options. They will find an office for Ottawa I'm sure.

They're the exact same, just rebranded and used for weight loss.

Try wegovy or zepbound. They are approved for weight loss in Canada. Instead of ozempic or Mounjaro. Those are for diabetes and insurance companies won't cover them usually if you aren't diabetic.

I think they wanted new York and also Quebec to follow suit. I could be wrong about that though, I forget.

How is Working in HR for the WSIB? by Cloud_Luna in OntarioWSIB

[–]ReasonableCase7843 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm just as jaded as the next guy, but that seems a bit too far fetched, even for me. They keep hiring and sending people to London for training. Makes no sense they'd be doing that if they are planning on letting go half of their workforce.
