That subsection deals with the failure to implement a safety plan to protect workers from traffic hazards.
A charge was laid after the worker was hit by a truck at Husky’s sand disposal facility in August 2015.
The penalty includes a fine of $71,429 and a surcharge of $28,571.
One additional charge against the energy company was withdrawn in court.
