Multiple charges laid after worker loses arm at Northern Territory cattle station

A Queensland cattle company and two of its employees are facing ‘reckless conduct charges’ after a cattle station worker lost his arm in a workplace incident.

The worker's hand was crushed by a post driver while working on a fence at a cattle station in the Katherine region in November 2022.

The case will be mentioned at the Darwin Local Court early next month.
