On May 28, 1992 a direction was given to Loomis Armoured Car Services Ltd. by safety officer Mr. Chris Mattson following refusals to work exercised by two employees. The reasons given for the refusals related to the transportation of money in unmarked vehicles. The company requested a review of the direction on June 2, 1992. An agreement was reached between the applicant and the Teamster Union in which the parties settled the issue outside the review process. A joint statement was sent to the Regional Safety Officer on December 11, 1992 confirming the agreement and indicating that Loomis Armoured Car Services Ltd. was withdrawing its request to have the direction reviewed.

On this basis, I hereby accept that Loomis Armoured Car Services Ltd. has withdrawed its request to have the direction, issued on May 28, 1992 by safety officer Mr. Chris Mattson, reviewed. I therefore consider that I am no longer seized of this matter. This file is closed.

December 17, 1992

Regional Safety Officer
