In the event of a Retired Scarborough or Toronto (TFS) Fire Fighters passing the estate or executor will want to notify CPP, OAS, OMERS, and depending on the individual a number of others. They should also contact the City to see if there are any entitlements owed (eg. life insurance).

If the (diagnosed) illness or death may be job-related (eg. prescribed cancer) you, your family or the estate, or the executor should contact the Toronto Professional Fire Fighters Association Disability Management (WSIB/LTD) Committee for more information and assistance on how to proceed – 416-466-1167 or wsibretired@torontofirefighters.org.

Once any cancer has been diagnosed reach out to the 3888 WSIB Committee to file and they will give advice on filing a claim.
