More than $1.3-million in fines have been levied against two companies involved in a series of B.C. crane accidents, including an incident last year at Vancouver’s Oakridge Park development where a worker was killed by material that fell 26 storeys.

WorkSafeBC fined EllisDon Corp. about $515,000 while Newway Concrete Forming was hit with a $113,000 penalty over the February 2024 tragedy when Yuridia Flores was killed by a 9.6-metre-long and six-metre-wide mould that was being lifted from one floor to another.
