On this episode of The Construction Record podcast, Journal of Commerce digital media editor Warren Frey looks at some of the stories percolating on our newsroom including the upcoming British Columbia Construction Safety Alliance’s Bridging the Gap safety conference, the Vancouver Regional Construction Association’s 30th annual Awards of Excellence in October and a bridge in Saskatchewan that collapsed mere hours after it opened.

The Workplace Insurance and Safety Board eliminated its undue liability 10 years ahead of schedule, which will drop premium rates next year between 30 to 48 per cent for construction rate groups, and Daily Commercial News staff writer Don Wall interviewed WSIB president and CEO Tom Teahen about that topic and others.
