WorkSafeBC to cut some employers' contributions - Michael Kane, Vancouver Sun
The anticipated gain for construction employers was welcomed by Peter Simpson, chief executive of the Greater Vancouver Home Builders' Association, who said it reflects the industry's emphasis on safety issues and compliance.
'But we still have a long way to go,' Simpson said Thursday. 'I am still passing construction sites where people are working on roofs with no safety harnesses or fall restraints. They are taking their lives in their hands.'------------------------------------------- posted 7:29 AM :: reference link ::
