Is the main contractor or sub-contractor responsible for a Work Permit holder’s medical expenses?

Updated by MOM

In situations involving main and sub-contractors (for example, in the construction industry), the direct employer of the Work Permit holder is liable for their medical expenses.

If you are the employer listed on the employee’s Work Permit card, then you are responsible.
