North Yorkshire firm fined £32,000 after worker falls from height
A company specialising in the installation of biomass heating systems and photovoltaic solar systems has been fined £32,000 after a worker suffered a serious injury following a fall from height.

He had attempted to work from a ladder at the side of the outbuilding but when this proved ineffectual, he resorted to climbing onto the roof to complete the works.
