Provincialworkplace safety inspectors have issued three orders to R.J. Cyr Company in Maidstone, where a man was killed when a steel beam fell on him Wednesday.

Among the orders issued, the company must provide written measures and procedures for conveyor clamps. Another order was issued for safely storing materials.
