A High Court judge has ruled in favour of the common-law wife of a diesel mechanic who was crushed by a cement truck in 2021.
At the end of a two-day trial on March 13, Justice Frank Seepersad ruled that R&K Concrete Company Ltd had breached its duty of care to its employee, Jerome Thomas, who died on April 19, 2021.
In his oral ruling, Seepersad noted that the company had failed to train its employees on the safety aspects of repairing extra heavy T trucks and had no safety protocols in place at the time.
