Death of 14-year-old puts spotlight on lax Alberta labour laws - Web posted by NUPGE
Edmonton - The death of a 14-year-old boy at a Wetaskiwin construction site has once again put the spotlight on Alberta's generally lax health and safety standards and slave-like minimum wage laws.
Eric Dyment was crushed to death July 16 by a machine while working for a contractor at the privately-operated Reynolds Museum in Westaskiwin. He was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital. Officials say the boy was underage and working in an area he should not have been. An investigation is underway.------------------------------------------- posted 4:10 PM :: reference link ::
