A man sought our help in obtaining his Joint Health and Safety Committee Certification through the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development. He said the Ministry refused to recognize his training because there was a 14-year gap between his completion of the first and second parts of his certification.
RESULT: After we intervened, Ministry officials clarified that they needed the man to provide more information about the training he completed. Shortly after he did so, he received his certification.
