Beware of 'Zombie' Truck Loggers By Quentin Dodd, The Tyee - workrights.ca
Weyerhaeuser has imposed an 11.5-hour “standard” day for its employees, and a number of contract operations already have some of their personnel working 15 to 16 hour days, especially in summer.

She said she worries more now that her husband is driving on-highway than when he was driving off-highway.------------------------------------------- posted 7:10 AM :: reference link ::
