A 2017 workplace fatality in Saskatchewan has resulted in a fine of more than half-a-million-dollars for a Winnipeg company.
Langenburg Redi-Mix Ltd., was given a fine of $560,000 in Moose Jaw Provincial Court on Tuesday.
The province says the company was found guilty of two occupational health and safety violations, failing to ensure health and safety of employees resulting in a death and failing to supervise employees resulting in a death.
The incident happened in early 2017 when a man in his 20’s working for the company was killed after being pinned by a wheel loader that had rolled backwards and into another vehicle.
