Company pleads guilty to safety violations in Dartmouth scaffold collapse

Culloden Properties Corp. accepted responsibility for the safety violations recently in Dartmouth provincial court and was sentenced by Judge Bronwyn Duffy.

After the incident, the work platform was twisted but still resting on its supports on the pumpjack. There were three other men working at the site that day. According to an agreed statement of facts filed with the court, the guardrail being used was not properly installed, the vertical poles were not secured at the base to a safe surface, and the U-shaped work platform was not properly attached to the pole jacks and flipped at the time of the incident.

The company now subcontracts all siding work to a third-party contractor that maintains required certifications and up-to-date equipment policies. Culloden also inspects the third-party contractor’s equipment prior to its use on each site.
