A former CEO is convicted of work environment crimes after a fatal accident at a construction company in Värmland, reports local media.
It was almost three years ago that an employee was crushed to death in connection with the assembly of a wall module.
The support gave way and the wall tipped over the man. Värmlands district court states in its judgment that the cause of the accident was that the wrong support was used and that the employee had not taken part in any information about which support should be used, reports nwt.se.
The CEO is therefore convicted of work environment crimes to a conditional sentence and 30 day fines. He must also pay 90,000 kronor in damages to the man's relatives.
The CEO denies the crime.
