Employers often fail to observe safety rules. Employers often make changes to safety systems and various ways of working and do not obey the rules.
We have to put up with it. We are simply asked to sign at the bottom of a form and get back to work. Someone has to take some leadership in safety matters and we think that it has to be Transport Canada. I am not blaming anyone, but Transport Canada has a leadership role to play. They have to make sure that companies strictly enforce the law in health and safety matters, for Canadians in general, as well as for the workers. If that is not done, I do not see why a railway company should be able to keep prospering in Canada when it is not obeying any laws and when it is complying with regulations in any way it likes.
