Bunge Canada was fined $42,000 in Nipawin, Sask. court recently after pleading guilty to one count under the provincial Occupational Health and Safety Act.
A worker was injured Aug. 13, 2009 while inspecting a rail car. The worker received an electrical shock while trying to remove foreign material below a power line.
Bunge’s plea was related to the failure to ensure a worker did not work within 4.6 metres of an exposed energized conductor.
