A waste and recycling company has been prosecuted for safety failings after a worker was seriously injured when a vehicle reversed into him.
The 25-year-old, who has asked not be named, was working in a sorting shed at the company when the incident occurred.
He was sorting recyclable material by hand from the area where dry waste was deposited. A telescopic materials handler was being operated close by. As the driver of the vehicle carried out his operations, he reversed into the area where the other employee was working. The vehicle struck the employee and knocked him to the ground.
