Burnaby’s Green West Building Maintenance Ltd. has been fined $53,000 and banned from hiring temporary foreign workers until February 2028.

A Burnaby cleaning company has been fined $53,000 and banned from hiring temporary foreign workers for five years after running afoul of the program’s regulations.

The company has employed temporary foreign workers but was fined in February for being “non-compliant with wages and working conditions,” according to an email from Employment and Social Development Canada. For temporary foreign workers at Green West Building Maintenance, “the pay or working conditions didn't match, or were not better than, what was listed on the offer of employment, or the job was not the same as what was listed on the offer of employment,” states a summary of the case posted online.

Companies that employ temporary foreign workers are subject to inspections that can be on-site or virtual, announced or unannounced and conducted without a warrant .
