摘要

A STEEL manufacturer has been fined 200,000 pounds after one of its employees died after being struck by a heavy crane hook. John Penhalagan, 44, from Bridgend, was employed by Celsa Manufacturing (UK), which recycles scrap steel for construction reinforcement materials, when he was hit by a 3.7 tonne crane hook, used to carry ladles of molten steel at the firm's new Tremorfa melt shop in Cardiff.
