Port Metro Vancouver trucking firms not complying with pay hike risk losing licenses
Canadian and provincial transportation authorities announced today that trucking companies who aren’t paying their drivers a 12-per-cent mandatory increase in container trucking rates are being investigated and could lose their licenses.
The increase was part of a deal that settled a truckers’ strike at Port Metro Vancouver earlier this year
In a news release posted on Canada News Wire, the ministries stated: "The Province of British Columbia is expanding its audits of trucking companies, and is responding to instances of non-compliance with recommendations to the Port of Metro Vancouver for specific, severe penalties for rate violators."
