The firm, Jackie Lunn, was fined at Selkirk Sheriff Court. The company admitted failing to take measures to prevent the girl from accessing a dangerous part of the machine and allowing it to operate without a guard being in place.
And again in the UK, The Telegraph reports that the Kensington branch of upmarket patisserie Le Pain Quotidien was ordered to pay £27,000 (€28,982) after an accident when a customer fell head-first through an open delivery hatch in the shop floor.
According to the report, the customer "crashed into lift machinery before bouncing face-first onto the concrete floor of a storage basement, 10 to 12 feet below the shop's ground floor."
Village du Pain, the patisserie chain's parent company, was ordered to pay the customer £7,500 (€8,050) in compensation, continues the report, adding that the firm was also fined £12,500 (€12,887) and ordered to pay £7,000 (€7,517) costs.
