Lumber firm fined $75,000 after employee injured in delivery
NEWMARKET, Ont. - A Canadian lumber firm must pay $75,000 for failing to protect one of its workers in 2015.
The worker was unloading large beams of lumber at a home residence when he was critically injured. After unstrapping two 28-foot long beams from the bed of his truck, the employee attempted to push them off the side but lost balance and fell seven feet to the driveway below.
