The case was called today (Aug. 28) in provincial court in St. John’s (Newfoundland & Labrador).

The company was fined $35,000 and must also contribute $15,000 towards workplace safety education.

Concord had earlier been found guilty of two counts under the Occupational Health and Safety Act.

It has one year to pay.

The company was found guilty in June of two charges under the province's Occupational Health and Safety Act. It was charged following the death of flagman Tom Connors, who was killed in May 2009 when an excavator crushed him.
