A Ministry of Labour inspector issued various orders at this workplace between June 2011 and December 2011. The company was subsequently charged with failing to comply with 13 orders.

Following a trial, Harbour Sports Grille was found guilty of failing to comply with the inspectors orders and was fined $110,000. The fine was imposed by Justice of the Peace Mary Anne Ross-Hendricks. In addition to the fine, the court imposed a 25-per-cent victim fine surcharge as required by the Provincial Offences Act.
