To assist government departments in combatting unscrupulous and illegal behaviour by Driver Inc carriers,\u00a0<\/span>the Canadian Trucking Alliance<\/span>\u00a0(CTA)<\/span>\u00a0and its provincial association partners are calling on members and all compliant carriers to report\u00a0<\/span>cases of noncompliance to provincial and federal agencies.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reports of noncompliance can be related to the Canada Labour Code, the Tax Code, Workers Compensation Boards, Provincial Revenue Authorities, the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, and other government programs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Reporting has never been easier. CTA has created a step-by-step tip sheet \/ reporting guide to help report suspected Driver Inc reports to multiple agencies like\u00a0Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC), Temporary Foreign Worker Program and certain provincial agencies with workplace oversight, like Ontario\u2019s WSIB and Revenu Quebec.

The tip sheet\u00a0<\/span>ensures reporting mechanisms are in place and the industry has a direct line to the appropriate enforcement authorities and advises what type of information should to be included, how to contact the relevant agency and how to send or report the information.\u00a0<\/span>The information submitted to the agencies will help lead to enforcement efforts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While not all tips will automatically lead to enforcement action, quality tips often can provide the basis for formal investigations and audits on companies suspected of gross violations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMany employers and workers have respect for Canada\u2019s laws and regulations like paying their fair share and abiding by labour laws and human rights. But not all companies want to follow the rules \u2013 they circumvent the system by avoiding taxes and denying employees basic labour rights and, consequently, our industry and society are paying the price for this noncompliance,\u201d says\u00a0<\/span>CTA president Stephen Laskowski.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFederal and provincial entities have said they stand with CTA in eliminating the abuse by the organizers of the Driver Inc. scheme, which is plaguing our workforce. This scheme is extensive and undermines several government systems and, as such, we need all relevant agencies to\u00a0<\/span>simultaneously<\/span>\u00a0focus their enforcement branches on these violators.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The reporting guide is the latest installment of CTA\u2019s\u00a0<\/span>Stop Tax and Labour Abuse<\/a><\/span>\u00a0campaign aimed at combatting Driver Inc carriers and other companies that abuse workers.
