What the release reports
Ong Chin Chong was fined S$140,000 over a fatal wire-mesh lift, described as the highest individual WSH fine at the September 2019 release date.
Details and conditions
A poorly secured lifting chain failed; technicians were assigned rigging without training, designated personnel or a lifting plan.
Context and follow-up
Unipac was separately fined S$60,000 and occupier Sunway S$160,000. Contractors and occupiers retain their own checks on external lifting operations. The record claim is historical, not a statement about every later prosecution.
