MISSISSAUGA, Ont. — A Mississauga, Ont.-based company that specializes in the assembly of wheelchairs was fined $150,000 on Jan. 13, in connection with the death of a worker two years ago. On May 26, 2013, a crew of workers at Future Mobility Healthcare Inc. was assigned the task of emptying the contents of trailers, the Ministry of Labour (MOL) said in a release. A 3,500-pound machine was being moved with a forklift, while two workers were standing in a tractor trailer and attempting to guide and stabilize the machine. However, the distance between two forks was too wide, and the machine was lifted on just one fork, the MOL reported. As the forklift operator began to lift the machine, the load began to tip towards one side of the trailer. One worker was able to jump out of the way, but another worker was pinned against the side of the trailer after attempting to stop the machine from tipping. A ministry investigation found that the company had failed to ensure that materials were lifted or moved in a way that did not endanger the safety of a worker.
