A worker's serious injury has resulted in a hefty fine for a Saskatoon company.
In March 2020, the worker suffered serious injuries after their coveralls became tangled in the spindles of a boring mill, according to a news release from the Ministry of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety.
On Sept. 14, Industrial Machine & Manufacturing Inc. pleaded guilty in Saskatoon Provincial Court to one violation of the province's workplace health and safety regulations, the ministry said.
The Saskatoon firm was ordered to pay $50,000 in fines.
