A Regina propane company has been fined $19,600 after a worker was burned while on the job.
Mobile Propane Services Inc. was charged under Occupational Health and Safety for “failure to provide or maintain a system of work or working environment that ensured, as far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety, and welfare of a worker.” The company didn't make required repairs to a propane-distribution truck.
In October 2013, a worker was filling a propane cylinder and a fire started and burned the worker.
The company was fined $14,000 with a $5,600 surcharge.
