First imprisonment under WA’s workplace safety and health laws
The director of a shed building company has become the first person to be sentenced to a term of imprisonment under WA’s workplace safety and health laws.
Director of MT Sheds (WA) Pty Ltd – Mark Thomas Withers – was yesterday sentenced in the Esperance Magistrates Court to two years and two months’ imprisonment following the 2020 death of a young worker and the serious injury of another.
He is to serve eight months of the sentence immediately, with the remaining 18 months suspended for 12 months. He was also fined $2250 for operating a crane without the appropriate licence.
