Lasja Lancashire and its manager were prosecuted after the death of a head injuries, which was subjected to the fall of the scaffolding that lacks the protection of basic safety.

Iftikhar Ahmed Mughal, 64, was installing the Metal Shop in Darwin when he fell six feet from an unbearable scaffolding platform to the sidewalk below. Despite the relatively modest height, the fall caused serious head injuries that have proven to be deadly after four days.

The accident prompted new warnings from safety inspectors about the ongoing risks posed by work in the height, which are still a major cause of the death of the workplace in the construction industry.

The investigation by health and safety executive found that Whizals Limited and its manager failed to prevent the risk of decreasing from the height while stabilizing the signs. The scaffolding tower lacks the protection of the edge – a basic safety procedure that researchers say it is likely to prevent tragedy.

The company manager was present at the site when the accident occurred, adding to the severity of the safety failures that HSE inspectors identified.

The son of Mr. Mughal, Assad, Ideas, praised his father after the court session: “My father was like a family roof, and since his death, my brothers and I have felt lonely. We have always supported everything we did; he will help us make all important decisions in our lives.”

WH METALS LIMITED, based in Preston, acknowledged that it is guilty of the breach of the health and safety law in the year 1974. The company received a fine of 45,000 pounds and ordered to pay 4,826.21 pounds in costs in addition to the cost of a victim worth 2000 pounds.

The director and Hanif forces acknowledged that he was guilty of violating the same act and obtained a 26 -week detention penalty, hanging for 12 months. He was also ordered to pay 4,846.21 pounds as costs and additional fees of 154 pounds for the victim.

HSE David Hobbs inspector emphasized the nature that can be prevented for the tragedy: “Working in the height is still one of the main causes of the workplace and death. In this case, the fall of six feet was sufficient to cause death, which highlights the risks.

“This accident highlights the importance of appropriate control measures, such as protecting the edge, to reduce the risk of serious personal injury.”

The issue is a blatant reminder that even relatively low work in height can be fatal without appropriate safety measures. HSE guidance clearly states that tongatles should be provided with appropriate degrees on platforms-a firm control measure that was a standard industry for decades.
