Worksafe is warning employers to make sure migrant workers understand safety risks
Worksafe is warning employers to make sure migrant workers understand safety risks
1 July 2020
Sidogg Investments was fined just over 280 thousand dollars in the Ashburton District Court yesterday after a worker received spinal injuries on a Canterbury dairy farm in 2018.
WorkSafe chief inspector Steve Kelly says English is his second language and the man was unaware standing on a trailer draw bar was a hazard - and slipped and was run over by the trailer.
Kelly says the injuries have changed his life and should never have happened.
