The policy states that the Corporation's operations are not to result in a deficit position at the end of any government fiscal year. The amount of surplus that is eligible to be retained by the Corporation will be a maximum of 6% of the previous year's audited total actual revenue including government transfer payments. Any amount in excess of the 6% maximum amount may be recovered by MOL in the following year through the reduction of transfer payment funding. Surplus funds retained by the Corporation must be used to support MOL's commitment to enhance health and safety in Ontario workplaces. No surplus funds can be used without written approval from MOL. MOL will notify the Corporation in writing in a timely manner regarding decisions related to proposed retention of surpluses. The use of surplus funds approved to be retained by the Corporation will be tracked by the Corporation and reported to MOL. Any amount not approved to be retained will be recovered by MOL. In the current year, MOL originally approved funding in the amount of $30,521,598 (2018 – $30,521,596). Included in current year funding is $302,000 (2018 – $nil) for capital expenditures. The Ministry subsequently reduced funding by $1,422,295 (2018 – $nil) and it approved a deficit up to the same amount (2018 – $nil). 16 Economic dependence The Corporation is dependent on MOL for funding a significant portion of the cost of operations. 17 Financial risk management The Corporation is exposed to certain financial instrument risks, such as credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk.
