April 17, 2014 - Diversified global manufacturing company Linamar Corp. dba Vehcom Manufacturing pleaded guilty and received a fine of $100,000 after a worker was burned via an exposed power terminal. In June 2012, the worker—along with another worker and a supervisor—were at a Linamar manufacturing facility located in Guelph, Ont. The workers were replacing a set of cooling fans in a capacitor panel at the workplace. A portion of the capacitor panel was locked, disabling one energy source to the panel.
