Excerpt from the Government of Ontario’s ‘Newsroom’
Asia Pulp & Paper (Canada) Ltd., a Toronto manufacturer of pulp and paper products, was fined $60,000 on June 09, 2009 for a single violation under the Occupational Health and Safety (OHSA) after a worker was seriously injured.
On November 5, 2007, at the company’s Brampton facility, a worker was loading skids onto a truck parked at a loading bay. While the worker was on a forklift inside the truck, the truck rolled forward about five metres from the loading bay. The worker reversed off the truck and fell, with the forklift, to the ground below.
A Ministry of Labour (MOL) investigation found that the wheels of the truck were not chocked to prevent it from rolling.
Asia Pulp and Paper (Canada) Ltd., pleaded guilty under the OHSA to failing, as an employer, to ensure the truck was immobilized and secured against accidental movement.
The court imposed an automatic 25-per-cent victim fine surcharge on the total as required by the Provincial Offences Act. The surcharge is credited to a special government fund to assist victims of crime.
My opinion
The law(s) in contravention:
Asia Pulp and Paper was convicted of a contravention of the Ontario ‘Industrial Establishments’ sector regulation 851/90, section 57 which states,
“A vehicle left unattended shall be immobilized and secured against accidental movement.”
The appropriate standard that deals with forklift training is CSA B335-04. (Year 2004 was the last year of amendment) Section 6.12.4 of that standard involves Docks, trucks and rail cars. Section (b) states, “The trainee shall be instructed on verifying that prior to entering the truck, trailer or railcar the vehicles are adequately restrained to prevent accidental movement.
In this case, the employee was at fault, the supervisor was at fault for not practicing due diligence and consulting the employer and checking to see if the trailer was restrained and the employer was at fault for not providing the information and instruction to the worker to protect the health and safety of the worker.
The CSA standard B335-15 is the forklift training standard the MOL accepts as well as the Minstry’s “Guidelines for the Safe Operation of Powered Lift Trucks”.
Since the operator did not check the trailer for wheel chocks it would be safe to assume that if the operator had any training at all. Every training provider would have included the information because the operator is responsible to chock the wheels. THAT is the law!
