Application to review refusal of wage order against directors dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
The applicant sought a review of an Employment Standards Officer's refusal to issue an order to pay $40,000 in wages against his former employer and its directors.
The employer was bankrupt.
The Board held that under section 68(2) of the Employment Standards Act, it lacked jurisdiction to review a refusal to issue an order against directors.
Furthermore, the Board could not issue an order against the bankrupt employer due to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, and because the applicant had already settled his claim with the Trustee in Bankruptcy.
The application was dismissed.
