Bioriginal Food and Science Corp. (Bioriginal) has been fined a total of $32,050 in Provincial Court after two workers were seriously injured in two separate incidents at the company's processing plant in Saskatoon.
Bioriginal pled guilty to six charges under The Occupational Health and Safety Regulations, 1996. The charges related to safety standards regarding the use of a safe working platform, safe use of a machine, and supervision of work. Three other related charges were stayed by the Crown.
The company was charged following an October 25, 2007 incident, when a 26 year old worker fell from the top of an expeller press at the plant, and a second incident on January 20, 2009, when a 27 year old worker was injured by an exposed auger while clearing a stoppage from a seed expeller.
"The government takes its responsibility for health and safety enforcement very seriously," Advanced Education, Employment and Labour Minister Rob Norris said. "There are repercussions for both employers and workers who fail to comply with Occupational Health and Safety legislation."
Occupational Health and Safety inspects approximately 4,000 workplaces annually and provides training to more than 4,000 employer and worker representatives each year on their safety responsibilities.
