VIXMAN CONSTRUCTION ON PROBATION AFTER WORKER FATALITY

摘要

VIXMAN CONSTRUCTION has been put under an 18-month probation by a Toronto court and fined $125,000 for a fatal incident that occurred at Billy Bishop Airport — a regional airport situated on the Toronto Islands. One worker was killed in the incident. The Ontario-based construction company describes itself as a provider, designer and installer of steel deck and cladding. The charges stemmed from a March 27, 2018 incident when Vixman Construction was contracted to install corrugated steel sheeting to form a roof over several new walkways from the gates to the tarmac of the airport. Two workers were working close to each other and advancing along the walkway with their self-retracting lifelines (SRLs) in place.
