Product Information

On or before September 25, 2018, it had failed to prevent access to dangerous parts of the NG-06 semi-automatic mattress rolling machine and failed to provide and maintain a safe system of work for mattress rolling using the machine. Mr Abulla set up the business with his brother. They went to university and studied business and finance.

Dreamtouch Mattresses Ltd, of Chelsea House, Chelsea Street, New Basford, was charged with being an employer and failing to discharge general health, safety and welfare duty to an employee. A guilty plea was entered. An investigation by The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) found that the company did not prevent access to the dangerous parts of the machine and had not implemented a suitable and sufficient safe system of work which would direct employees to not place their hands close to the dangerous parts of the machine. Courts in Nottingham have virtual link facilities to allow interested parties to log in via a secure link to follow cases live in the courtroom during the pandemic. It was better to try and semi-automate the process and they sought machines from a supplier, the court heard.He had two broken bones in his arm, four broken ribs and ligament damage. He was hospitalised and needed prolonged treatment.

Another worker went to the machine's control panel and made several attempts to switch the machine off. The type of charges listed range from speeding, contravening a health and safety regulation, to an employer failing to discharge a general health, safety and welfare duty to an employee.

The lawyer for the company explained: "At first they were rolling these mattresses and trying to compress them by hand. And that was the devil's own job".
