Sault Ste. Marie-based fuel distributor pleaded guilty this month to a single charge of failing to implement measures to protect a worker in connection with 2023 incident

Sault Ste. Marie-based McDougall Energy Inc. has been fined $70,000 after a worker fell into a vehicle service pit and suffered “several injuries.”

“McDougall Energy Inc., doing business as Dowler-Karn, failed to ensure measures were implemented to protect a worker from falling into an in-ground vehicle service pit,” says a news release posted online yesterday by the Ontario Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development. “The service shop has multiple work bays in which vehicles are repaired and maintained, including an in-ground vehicle service pit in work bay three,” the news release states. “The pit is 70 feet long, 42 inches wide and 64 inches deep. At the time of the incident, the pit was not in use and did not have a barricade or technician monitoring it to prevent workers from falling in.”
