News & Events Announcement from Premier David Eby: Construction Sites with 25 or More People Must Have Flushable Toilets

Premier David Eby, along with the BC NDP government, has unveiled plans to establish a legal mandate for flush toilets on construction sites employing 25 workers or more. At CLR, we support improvements to worksite facilities, and we support the BCBT advocacy efforts in this regard. Our position comes with some caveats. Read the bulletin here.

Additionally, our collective agreements include language emphasizing proper-fitting safety equipment and clothing for all body types and genders. This places responsibility on contractors to provide gender-specific PPE. Read the bulletin here.
