Scaffold firm guilty of safety failures | Bay of Plenty Times

Scaffold firm guilty of safety failures | Bay of Plenty Times: A Rotorua man was knocked unconscious and spent two days in hospital after he fell from scaffolding when it gave way, the Rotorua District Court has been told.
Whakatane-based company Cobweb Scaffolding was found guilty yesterday of a charge of hiring scaffolding to a Rotorua couple to be used in a place of work and failing to take all practicable steps to ensure the scaffolding was maintained so it was safe for its intended use. The company had pleaded not guilty to the charge brought against them under the Health and Safety in Employment Act.
