Construction firm fined $125K for 2018 worker death at Billy Bishop Airport

A construction company in Rockwood, Ont., has been fined $125,000 and sentenced to 18 months’ probation following a 2018 fatality that stemmed from a fall from heights.


One part gear, one part mindset

Fall protection continues to be a main issue in workplace safety, as too many workers still believe they are immune to this type of injury.


Investigators lay safety violation charges in death at Halifax site

A foreman and the company that employed him are facing charges under Nova Scotia’s Occupational Health and Safety laws in relation to the falling death of a young labourer at a Halifax worksite.

It is critical to ensure that all components of a fall-arrest system remain in good condition, in view that most fall-protection gear has a life expectancy of about five years.
