A Tisdale company has been ordered to pay $85,000 after a worker was seriously injured on a worksite.

Chupa Trucking & Excavating Ltd. pleaded guilty to one count under ‘The Occupational Health and Safety Regulations, 1996’ in Melfort Provincial Court on May 30.

More specifically, they were fined for failing to provide any information, instruction, training, and supervision that is necessary to protect the health and safety of workers at work, resulting in the serious injury of a worker.

Back on April 15, 2020, a worker was hurt after falling into a closing gravel trailer dump gate at a site near Tisdale.

Chupa Trucking & Excavating Ltd. was fined $60,714.28 and was given a surcharge of $24,285.72, for a total amount of $85,000.
