Plethora of Stop Work Orders

The Ministry of Labour has stepped in again in the on again..off again….demolition of a former church in downtown Picton.
The province has 8 separate “stop work” orders against the demolition company run by Jim Sinclair.
The orders include having a professional engineer on-site during the work, having trained personell working the job, and insuring proper communication between workers on the ground and those running heavy machinery.
The orders come following a scary incident Wednesday where a young worker was up in a tower while machinery was smashing down a wall. A Ministry of Labour rep rushed to get the young man out of the tower. The inexperienced worker quit his job on the spot.
There’ll be no work at the Main Street Picton site until the “stop work” orders are satisfied.
