Ontario's Workplace Safety and Insurance Board announced on October 22 that its average employer premium rate will fall to $1.18 per $100 of insurable earnings on January 1, 2027, from $1.23 in 2026. The agency expects more than 80% of premium paying businesses to receive a reduction, but employers must check their individual rate statements when they become available in November.
