Moreno Contractors Ltd. was found non-compliant with Canada's Temporary Foreign Worker program regulations for violating provision 209.4(1)(b), specifically Code 6: the employer didn't give the inspector the documents they asked for. This obstruction forced government inspectors to conduct their compliance review without critical records, undermining the ability to verify adherence to TFW rules. The federal government imposed a $45,000 CAD penalty on December 2, 2025, and deemed the company "Eligible," meaning no program ban was applied despite the infraction. Such violations erode worker protections by hindering oversight, potentially allowing exploitation in the TFW program and compromising its integrity for vulnerable foreign nationals. This official enforcement action underscores ESDC's commitment to holding employers accountable.
