18 Mar 2026 Double J SmallwoodsDouble J Smallwoods sawmill: 601,250 NZD after two serious injuries €304,230
In June 2024 timber kicked back from an inadequately guarded stack saw at the Gisborne sawmill and seriously injured a worker's arm; seven weeks later another worker was crushed between two forklifts and suffered spinal and pelvic fractures. WorkSafe (New Zealand's workplace health and safety regulator) found systemic failings in machine guarding, risk assessment, traffic management, training and maintenance; the company had not notified the first incident and had not acted on earlier formal directions to fix the risks. On 18 March 2026 the Gisborne District Court imposed a fine of 601,250 NZD and 100,754 NZD in reparation.
Regulatory directions and first incidents call for immediate action – failing to notify incidents and leaving risks unaddressed invites further injuries.
Machine guarding, workplace traffic management and incident notification
Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
