On July 12, 2024 more than 7,000 residents of Labrador City (including more than 2,000 Iron Ore Company of Canada ("IOC") employees) were ordered by provincial authorities to evacuate the town due to the threat of nearby forest fires.

In addition, IOC has announced that it has donated CAN$125,000 to the Canadian Red Cross to support relief efforts in connection with the recent wildfires in the Labrador West region and has committed an additional CAN$75,000 to support community organizations assisting with the recovery phase.
