Charges dropped against a drilling company over a workplace accident

The State Solicitor's Office in WA has dropped charges against a Western Australian drilling company that was accused of failing to provide a safe working environment in a long-running case dating back nearly three years.

The Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety investigated the incident, in which a worker allegedly tried to climb back onto a track-mounted vehicle that was moving but he slipped and was crushed into a salt lake. Raglan Drilling — founded in 2006 by brothers Hugo and Gus Lacey — had pleaded not guilty and was due to fight the charges at a five-day trial set down for July.
