Our workplace health and safety watchdog says hazards were overlooked before a sandboarding death in the Far North

Jin Chang Oh died in the Te Paki sand dunes in 2019, when he slid in front of a bus.

WorkSafe investigation manager, Danielle Henry says Sand Safaris should've learned from a person being run over and seriously injured three years earlier, at the same location.

Sand Safaris has been fined 200-thousand-dollars and must pay just over 180-thousand-dollars in reparations.
