The defendant was not liable because the court found on the evidence that rolling a 25-lb glass turntable into a purpose-built cabinet using the provided rubber mat did not create a foreseeable health or safety risk, the employer had taken reasonable steps including training and appropriate equipment, and the plaintiff's injury was not proved to result from the defendant's negligence or breach of statutory duty.
