No benefits if a
job is turned down
It those on welfare in Huron County turn
down a job, they do get their benefits stop-
ped, says social services administrator
John MacKinnon.
He told the Oct. 10 session of county
council that there are jobs in the county for
those willing to work.
Hay Township Reeve Lionel Wilder was
upset that there are people in the county
who are healthy, but unwilling to work. He
said he knows of farmers in the south end
of the county who recruit workers from
Quebec, France and Jamaica.
"All year we are terminating people if
they refuse a job," said MacKinnon.
There was good news in the ad-
ministrator's monthly report. The welfare
caseload has gone down by over 22 per cent
in the past year.
MacKinnon said agriculture -related
employment in the sununer and during
this time of year has helped reduce those
numbers.
22 Suncoast.
The family arrived in Goderich Mgnday
