A longtime Lower Mainland asbestos removal company and its operator, who repeatedly violated the province’s worker safety rules, have been permanently barred from the industry.
Marzari noted that in two cases there were reasonable grounds to believe that Seattle issued clearance letters — which would allow unprotected workers to enter a site — before all asbestos had been removed. The judge found that Singh breached the workplace safety laws more than 20 times at 11 different work sites — including homes in Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond and West Vancouver — between 2013 and 2017.
From 2007-2016, 605 B.C. workers died from asbestos-related diseases, according to statistics from WorkSafe B.C. In the latest decision, the judge found that Singh was again in contempt for not following the rules, while Shawn was not found in contempt.
He should have been stopped long ago. Infraction after infraction after infraction. He has no respect for the law, regulations, or employees. Bet he doesn't stop. Who's going to ensure he doesn't carry on business?
