Chemicals firm fined £400K

A CHEMICALS company has been fined £400,000 after a worker narrowly escaped serious injury in a high-pressure steam release incident at its site in Huddersfield.

Syngenta Ltd was sentenced after the 59-year-old contractor working under its control and direction had been carrying out unsafe maintenance work.

The man had been working as a mechanical fitter on November 6 2023 when the incident took place, resulting in the company reporting it to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) as a dangerous occurrence.

The incident involved a release of high-pressure steam as he went about his job. The company operates a large agrichemicals production site where some of the production plants rely on high pressure steam to manufacture products.
