Isabel Warren, 14, was fatally injured when a counter and a block wall collapsed in a change room at the South End Community Park, a Guelph-owned facility located next to Warren's school. On Monday, the Ministry of Labour announced the charge against the engineer for "providing negligent or incompetent advice, which endangered a worker." Ministry spokesman Bruce Skeaff said that although a private citizen was killed, the Ministry of Labour has jurisdiction because the accident technically occurred in a workplace where city employees, including cleaners and maintenance staff, continue to work. Last week, the Ministry laid three charges against the City of Guelph, and one charge against an unnamed architect. The Occupational Health and Safety Act charges allege that the city failed to ensure that a wall or other part of a workplace was capable of supporting all loads; failed to ensure every part of a project was designed and constructed to resist all loads and forces; and failed to ensure every part of a project was adequately braced to prevent any movement that may affect its stability or cause its failure or collapse. An unnamed architect was also charged with providing negligent to incomplete advice, which endangered a worker. If convicted, the city could face fines of up to $1.5-milion and the architect and engineer face maximum penalties of $25,000 or 12 months behind bars. All those charged have their first court appearance in Guelph on June 16. Come see what our school has to offer! , n dre Chil your g brin ents! par 191 MAIN STREET, ROCKWOOD (519) 856-4486
