These changes are aimed at both the worker and the employer. The new legislation gives government inspectors the authority to issue tickets for safety infractions when they are visiting a site. The fines for infractions range from $100 dollars to $5oo dollars. A couple of examples of infractions are: Not using fall protection when working on a roof. The fine is $200.00 for the worker and $500.00 for the employer. Using a grinder without a proper guard is a fine of $200.00 for the worker and $500.00 for the employer.
