Excerpt from the government of Ontario’s ‘Newsroom’
A worker, employed by General Coach Canada of Hensall, Ontario, a company that manufactures and assembles park model and house trailers, was critically injured while cutting a piece of melamine with a table saw. By not ensuring the saw was equipped with a guard, General Coach Canada failed to ensure that the measures and procedures as prescribed by section 24 of Ontario Regulation 851/90 were carried out at the workplace, contrary to section 25(1)(c) of the Occupational Health and Safety Act.
