Company fined $260,000 for workplace injury in Saskatoon
Richelieu Hardware Canada Ltd. was fined a hefty $260,000 for a workplace safety violation leading to a serious worker injury.
The company pleaded guilty in Saskatoon provincial court on April 22, according to a release from the province.
The release said the company failed to provide proper training in safe rigging practices, a violation of The Occupational Health and Safety Regulations, 2020.
This resulted in a worker sustaining serious injuries while attempting to load a 4,000 pound crate of glass onto a truck in November 2021.
The court imposed a fine of $185,714.29 with an additional $74,285.71 surcharge. One additional charge was withdrawn, the release said.
