HALIFAX -- An electrical services company has been found guilty of two occupational health and safety offences after one of its employees was electrocuted while working at a job site in Halifax.

Christopher Boyle died on May 21, 2013, while working at a plaza at 201 Chain Lake Dr.

R.D. Longard Services was charged with two offences: failing to take every precaution reasonable in the circumstances to provide information necessary to Boyle's safety, and failing to ensure an electrical installation was serviced, repaired or dismantled according to code.

The provincial court convicted the company of both charges.
