Rocksteady Builders pleaded guilty on Jan. 10 in Moose Jaw provincial court for failing to ensure workers were using a fall protection system where they could fall three or more metres.
The company was fined a total of $14,000. One other charge was stayed.
OHS regulations stipulate employers must have a written fall protection plan and ensure workers are using a fall protection system when they could fall three metres or more.
