Floralia Growers broke labour laws as union rights of migrant agriculture workers upheld by B.C. Labour Board

Date

2017

Abstract

The British Columbia Labour Relations Board (BCLRB) has upheld charges that the owners of a B.C. agriculture operation broke the labour laws in attempting to derail the union rights of migrant workers at Floralia Plant Growers Limited in the Lower Mainland. On Friday, the BCLRB delivered its decision that Floralia had violated the labour code by creating obstacles for certain migrant workers to return to the farm in 2016 because they were known to be union supporters.
