A fish processing company has been fined £80,000 over health and safety failings following the death of an employee who was struck by a forklift truck.
Karen Allan, 61, was run over by a reversing forklift after placing a bag of rubbish into a bin on the premises of QA Fish in Scalloway, Shetland, on 31 January, 2018.
A quality controller and housekeeper with the company, she had heard the reversing alarm and shouted, but was unable to get out of the path of the vehicle, which struck her leg and dragged her under.
