Sir Robert McAlpine fined ￡260,000 after 'anomaly' project at group director's hall

摘要

An incident in which a worker was badly injured in a 4.8 metre-fall through an unprotected opening has cost Sir Robert McAlpine ￡298,299 in fines and costs. The HSE prosecuted the construction firm after discovering it had not implemented its usual systems during the project at Stone Gappe Hall in Keighley, West Yorkshire. The fine of ￡260,000 equates to 3.6% of the company's most recent pre-tax profit of ￡7.3 million.
