Launch of Port Expansion plans brings call for labour help

Port Expansion at the DP World  Fairview Container Terminal
is  now underway

With work now getting underway on the much anticipated Fairview Terminal Expansion project, Kiewit the contractor for the ambitious project has started to seek out some local or out of town help for the work to be done.

A pair of Help Wanted positions make the mark for job opportunities available on the Fairview Worksite, with  call for applications for Heavy Equipment Operators and Labourers now posted.

Local residents may want to book mark the Prince Rupert, Make it Home website, which has been providing for the job alerts for both residents of the community and those across Canada who may be looking to chart a new course for new opportunities and a new home.

Last week we noted of some of the contractors preliminary recruitment work, with a special Virtual Job Fair set up for members of the Lax Kw'alaams Band.

The expansion project gained the green light in mid 2020, the work underway now is the first of what is anticipated to be a two stage process which when completed will bring capacity for the Fairview site to 1.8 million TEU's.
