How to Fill Out WSIB Form 6?

Follow these steps to prepare WSIB Claim Form 6:

  1. Write down the claim number and indicate your personal information - full name, social insurance number, date of birth, sex, preferred language.

  3. Describe the illness or injury - state the timeline, name the individual you reported the issue to, check the boxes to specify which body part was harmed, and describe the location of the incident.
