The Ministry of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety says the charges against Nutrien stemmed from an incident that occurred near Rocanville on Sept. 20, 2021, when a worker was badly hurt after stepping into an unguarded floor opening.

The court imposed a fine of $142,857.14 with a surcharge of $57,142.86.
