Disability Prevention at Work
This 1 day seminar examines writing formats for preparing a written submisison. Participants discuss hearing options for appeals and the specific criteria considered when determining whether or not a written submission is appropriate. Important points of a written submission are discussed as they relate to the WSIAT Practice Direction for written submissions. Myths associated with oral hearings and how they can be used to improve writing skills begin an exploration of the differences between the two types of appeal. The traditional structure of the submission is explored with specific details for each section discussed. In addition to submissions, this course also addresses writing to doctors and the effect the letter has both on the medical professional’s reply and on the decision maker on the file. Seating is limited so book early to secure a spot.
