SINGAPORE - A landscaping firm, linked to a 2016 explosion that left two of its employees with severe burn injuries, was fined $220,000 on Wednesday for failing to take adequate safety measures.

Mr Rahman then switched on a socket extension to activate a floodlight, sparking an explosion so powerful that it flung a third Bangladeshi, Mr Uddin Mohammad Riaz, out of the entrance of the tank as he was climbing down the ladder. Environmental Landscape was represented by lawyer Fazal Mohamed Abdul Karim , who told the court that Mr Rahman's medical treatment provided by the Singapore General Hospital amounted to more than $434,000, while Mr Miah's bill was more than $432,000.

Ministry of Manpower prosecuting officer Lee Kui Bao said that at around 6.30pm on July 25, 2016, the trio and their colleague, Mr Alagappan Vignesh, 23 , were instructed by their supervisor, Hossan Billal, 30, to clear residual water from the tank. They were also not informed of the risks involved, such an oxygen deficiency or the build-up of flammable gases that could lead to an explosion.The ministry said:"The company also failed to develop and implement procedures for dealing with emergencies that might arise while its employees were at work in the confined space."
