Safety changes have been made in the poultry transport industry since a worker was killed in Christchurch. Mother-of-seven Kamila Mun died when she was struck by a forklift during her first day of work at Alderson's Poultry Transport Ltd in June 2017. Mun had taken a second job with the poultry transport company to help pay for her children's education. Mun's family was not at Thursday's sentencing for the company because they were dealing with another family bereavement. Alderson's Poultry Transport Ltd and Tegel Foods Ltd had admitted charges of failing to take all reasonable steps to keep a worker safe at work.
