A 49-year-old Polish employee was fatally injured in August 2014 when the forklift truck he was driving at Cherry Pipes’ premises in Dungannon overturned, trapping him between the vehicle’s safety frame and the ground.
The Health & Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSENI) investigation found that the deceased was employed as a general operative, not a forklift truck operator and as a result had not been trained on the operation of the lift trucks by the company.
