Chad Shostal, a Thunder Bay construction supervisor, was fined $10,000 by an Ontario Court of Justice after a roofer was injured in 2011.
Shostal, who was working for an independent contractor, was supervising workers shingling the roof of a home in Thunder Bay on July 12, 2011, when one of the workers fell off the roof and was injured.
A Ministry of Labour investigation revealed that the worker was not wearing fall protection.
On June 15, Justice of the Peace Joseph Caron found Shostal guilty, as a supervisor, of failing to ensure his workers wore fall protection. The constructor and the employer both previously pled guilty to charges related to this incident.
