CNESST Contestation

SLOGAR appeals your CNESST decision to the Administrative Labour Tribunal (Tribunal Administratif du Travail) for you.

Slogar Juriconseil - Compassion

Specialized lawyers and professionals to win your CNESST contestation and secure your CNESST compensation

The Commission des normes, de l’équité, de la santé et de la sécurité du travail, the CNESST, acts as an insurer for workers and employers in Quebec. Decisions made by the CNESST have a direct impact on the lives of injured workers. Too often, in administrative review, CNESST decisions do not correspond to the needs and realities of injured workers or those with occupational diseases. In such cases, contesting the CNESST decision before the Administrative Labour Tribunal (TAT) becomes necessary to protect your interests and obtain the full compensation to which you are entitled.

At that point, the specialized lawyers at the Slogar Juriconseils law firm step in to help you navigate the contestation process against the CNESST before the Administrative Labour Tribunal (TAT) to finally obtain the decision that provides you with the compensation and permanent impairment benefits to which you are entitled due to your workplace accident or occupational disease.

Our specialized lawyers and professionals know the recourses and the process to get the outcome you deserve. Protect your rights and obtain the compensation and permanent impairment benefits to which you are entitled.

Common examples of reasons why SLOGAR files a CNESST contestation for its clients before the Administrative Labour Tribunal:

  1. Refusal to recognize a workplace accident, occupational disease or new claim: If the CNESST administrative review refuses to recognize your injury or illness as work-related, it is crucial to contest the CNESST and its decision.
  2. Incorrect calculation of your permanent impairment or compensation: If you believe the calculation of your compensation is incorrect, SLOGAR can help you verify the figures and contest the CNESST decision if necessary.
  3. Non-payment of compensation: If you have not received the compensation to which you are entitled, contesting the CNESST decision may be the solution.
  4. Non-recognition of your need for vocational rehabilitation: If the CNESST administrative review does not recognize your need for workplace rehabilitation, this can have a significant impact on your professional life and recourse to the tribunal may be an option to assert your rights and contest the CNESST and its decision.
