City of Regina fined $100K following safety violation with provincial court ruling
The City stated they launched their own investigation and have cooperated with the Occupational Health and Safety investigation. Following this ordeal, the City has implemented new policies and procedures to eliminate health and safety risks in the future.
“Bus shelter glass is now handled by workers in a safe, open space, not inside shipping containers,” stated Stacey. “Training requirements for employees uncrating glass have been revised, and before handling bus shelter glass, employees must now review and sign off on safety procedures.” The City of Regina extends a public apology to this individual injured on the job, accepts responsibility for the unsafe conditions that led to those injuries, and remains fully committed to protecting the health and safety of its workers.
The former city worker is no longer an employee with the City of Regina based on the individual’s own decision, said Stacey in a city council scrum on Feb. 8, 2023.
