A Pembroke court has fined Sandvik Canada Inc. USD 115,000 for a violation of the Ontario Occupational Health & Safety Act after a worker severely injured his hand at the company’s Arnprior plant. An unidentified Sandvik worker was injured on 14 May 2008, when his hand became caught in the rack and pinion gears of a machine used to shape stainless steel tubes. Sandvik pled guilty on 26 April 2010 to failing to ensure the machine’s moving parts were stopped and blocked before the worker began changing the die used to form the tubes.
