Syncrude has been charged with five workplace safety offences after a worker drowned at an oilsands mine north of Fort McMurray in 2021.
Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety claims that on June 6, 2021, a worker was building a berm with a John Deere excavator when the bank slumped into fresh water. The worker could not get out of the excavator’s fully submerged cab and drowned. At the time, the company said the death happened around 5 p.m. at Syncrude’s Aurora mine.Sign up to receive daily headline news from the Calgary Herald, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.
Those same guidelines also say risks facing traffic or the ground must be studied when ground conditions are unknown or surface cracks are discovered. A geotechnical engineer must approve those surveys before a safe access plan is completed. OHS alleges Syncrude did not follow this step, either.
