A Melbourne scrap metal recycler has been fined $40,000 after a man was severely injured when his hand was caught in a shredding machine. The accident ocurred in August 2021 when a contractor was operating the machine used to separate and cut materials at Manhari International’s recycling plant in Tottenham, in the city’s west. According to WorkSafe, the man noticed one of the machine’s conveyor belts was stopping and starting and decided to inspect what was happening.
This was despite the company being aware of the risks as identified in a risk assessment of the machine when it was first installed in May 2020. Manhari International faced the Sunshine Magistrates Court last Friday.
