Court-enforceable undertaking for Asciano

11 Sep 2009

Comcare has accepted a Court-enforceable undertaking from Asciano Services Pty Ltd (Asciano) after the employer allegedly failed to observe its duties under federal workplace safety laws.

The undertaking is a result of a Comcare investigation into a 28 November 2007 incident where a 76 tonne Vulcan mobile crane tipped over at the Adelaide Freight Terminal. The investigation found that Asciano failed to take all reasonably practicable steps to provide and maintain a safe working environment.
