Sentence: £2.48 million fine
Biffa Waste Services Ltd failed to effectively review and monitor measures to protect pedestrians and separate them from vehicles at their waste transfer site in Bradford. On August 10, 2023, this led to the death of worker James Tabri, 57, who was crushed beneath the wheels of a reversing skip wagon while crossing the weighbridge. CCTV showed workers commonly bypassing pedestrian routes and climbing over barriers, indicating a casual attitude to health and safety. The incident was deemed easily avoidable with proper monitoring and supervision.
