The company was fined for contravening a clause of the regulations requiring it to provide “information, instruction, training and supervision that is necessary to protect the health and safety of workers at work, resulting in the serious injury of a worker.”
The court imposed a fine of $60,714.29 with a surcharge of $24,285.71.
