Plymouth Magistrates Court heard that on 21 October 2013 Keith Stevens, 57, was helping to dismantle temporary roofing at Devonport Naval Base using a mobile elevated work platform (MEWP).
His colleagues found him trapped between a roof beam and the controls of the MEWP.
There was a delay in Stevens being lowered to ground and he died of a pre-existing heart condition.
An HSE investigation found that Pyeroy had not properly planned the work on a MEWP in restricted overhead areas.
It was also found that other Pyeroy employees had not received suitable training in the emergency lowering procedure of the elevated platforms and no practice drills had been carried out.
Pyeroy Ltd of Gateshead has pleaded guilty to breaching Work at Height Regulations and was fined £130,000 and ordered to pay costs of £14,388.36.
Speaking after the hearing HSE inspector Helena Allum said: “If Pyeroy had trained other employees to use the mobile elevated work platform in emergency situations, Mr Stevens would have been lowered to the ground more swiftly. This case highlights the need for duty holders to properly plan all work at height beforehand, including emergency planning and rescue situations.”
