HENSALL — The federal labour ministry is investigating after an accident at Thompson’s Ltd. feed mill in Hensall last month.
Two workers “were found under bags of soybeans,” according to the provincial labour ministry, which got the call on Aug. 19. One worker was taken to hospital.
Long-time employee Tim Glavin died the next day “as a result of an accident,” according to an online obituary.
The federal labour ministry confirmed it was investigating the Aug. 19 incident but said that while an investigation is underway it cannot “comment on any specific findings,” and that there was no definite timeline on how long an investigation would take.
