Contractor & Home Owner Fined after Worker Is Hit by Drilling Attachment

At a residential construction site, a worker was injured after an improperly secured drilling attachment came off a Bobcat and hit him. The contractor pleaded guilty to violating The OHS Act by failing to instruct a worker to keep a safe distance from a piece of power mobile equipment operated by an untrained operator. The court fined him $4,200.
