Not that Im interested in the Job, but courious to what their paying. I work at a warehouse also, so just curious.

[WantOne]

Lifting 70 lbs? WSIB will deny your claim if the weight is over 50.

I would love to know how much the pay is. I'm intrested in finding a new job

[Magnum P.I]

Believe its 27 or 28k a year, about the 70lbs thing, that will be up to HR. i have no idea why they put that there...

[WantOne]

Ah. HR...wonder if they have ever read the OHSA. Not bustin' your chops. It is kind of you to post this for the members who may be out of work.

[Go Mango]

Nice work there Denroy.
WantOne, I worked on WSIB cases for a few years, and was never denied a claim on injuries incurred lifting over 50lbs. Actually, here is a quote from the Ministry of Labour (Ontario):
How much a weight can a worker be legally required to lift?

Although it is well known that lifting can be a hazard for workers, there is no "magic number" in Ontario's health and safety regulations describing a safe weight for lifting. The maximum acceptable amount of weight a worker can handle depends on the worker's build and fitness, the height lifted from and to, the distance from the body, the frequency of lifting, and other factors.
Section 25(2)(h) of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA), which requires an employer to do what is reasonable in the circumstances to protect a worker, applies to lifting operations. There are general precautions that can reduce lifting hazards, and an ergonomic analysis can be performed to determine what is likely to be safe for a specific person performing a particular task. Ergonomics is concerned with how the human body is affected by the tasks it performs, including lifting.

Denroy, keep looking out for your LX Bro's and Sisters.
