The Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (“WSIB”) has announced it will begin distributing $2 billion in surplus rebates to eligible Schedule 1 employers in October 2025. This follows a previous rebate in Spring 2025 and promises to help Ontario businesses deal with ongoing economic uncertainty.

An eligible employer will receive the rebate as a credit to its account, and the credit will be automatically applied against future premiums owed. If an employer is up-to-date with its premium payment and reporting obligations, it can request a cheque for any credit(s) on its account.

The Fall rebate is expected to equal approximately 61% of premiums the employer reported in 2024.
