Construction and Specialized Workers’ Union Local 1611 on behalf of
Foreign workers on temporary work visas from Central and South America, at
this time Costa Rica, Columbia, and Ecuador, who are employed by the
Respondents and are employees covered by the bargaining certificate granted
by the Labour Relations Board of British Columbia between the Construction
and Specialized Workers’ Union, Local 1611, and SELI Canada Inc. and
SNCP-SELI Joint Venture

CSWU alleges that the Respondents discriminated against members of the
Complainant Group on the basis of their race, colour, ancestry and place of origin in
respect of the terms and conditions of their employment, contrary to s. 13 of the Human
Rights Code. The members of the Complainant Group were included in the bargaining
unit represented by CSWU at the time the complaint was filed.
