What is a work trial?

A work trial is a SIRA program that helps injured workers improve work capacity, develop new skills, and gain practical experience.

A work trial is a program aimed at helping injured workers gain practical work experience in a real workplace setting as part of their recovery.

The program is typically for up to 12 weeks, during which the worker can perform suitable duties under the guidance of a host employer, with the goal of rebuilding work capacity.

Workers compensation covers the wages and other associated costs during the trial, and employers are under no obligation to employ the worker after the trial ends.
