Fine for accident at work in Faria Lima was BRL 668 – 09/02/2023 – Panel SA

The fall of engineering equipment from the top of a building onto the asphalt of Avenida Faria Lima, the financial center of São Paulo, resulted in a fine of R$ 668.37 to the responsible company.

The City of São Paulo gave Construtora Racional five days to carry out the necessary adaptations. If you fail to comply, you may be fined again.

The report of the accident at the construction site has not yet been completed, according to the company.

The accident happened on Monday (6), at a construction site in building number 3,527. Sought by Panel SA, the company did not inform the dimensions of the equipment, denied that it is a crane and said that it is a machine called a spider, used to install glass. The equipment fell onto the crosswalk.

In a note, the Municipal Secretariat of Subprefectures said that “the construction was fined due to the lack of pedestrian protection during the development of façade services”.
