Inspection revealed multiple deficiencies
Golden Eagle Farms, a berry farm in Pitt Meadows, B.C., has been fined $53,690.
WorkSafeBC conducted an inspection of this firm's worker transportation vehicle jointly with the provincial commercial vehicle safety and enforcement branch.
The inspection identified deficiencies, including a leak in the air brake compressor discharge line.
The vehicle was deemed unsafe and WorkSafeBC issued a stop-use order.
The firm failed to ensure vehicles used to transport workers were maintained, a repeated and high-risk violation.
