A Belfast company has been fined after a worker suffered “severe crush injuries” to his hand which later needed amputated. The Health and Safety Executive Northern Ireland (HSENI) has successfully led a prosecution against John Thompson and Sons Limited, York Road, Belfast. An investigation followed an incident on December 21, 2019, that resulted in an agency worker sustaining life-changing injuries. The company, which manufactures animal feed, earlier pleaded guilty at Belfast Crown Court and today (Thursday) was fined a total of £40,000 for the offences. The HSENI investigation found that the worker was carrying out maintenance on a grain roller machine in an attempt to clear a blockage when his right hand was drawn into two counter-rotating rollers. The incident caused severe crush injuries to his hand, which later had to be amputated above the wrist. Read More Speaking after the hearing, HSENI Inspector, Kiara Blackburn said: “This serious incident could easily have been avoided. “It is essential that safe systems of work are developed and implemented to ensure the safety of employees and other people working near dangerous parts of machinery. “During any maintenance activity, machines must always be safely isolated from energy sources to prevent inadvertent start-up.” Machinery guards can take several forms but where practicable, fixed enclosing guards should be used. In some cases, regular access to dangerous parts of machines may be required and other guard types such as interlocking guards may be more appropriate. Most Read
