SafeWork SA inspectors are satisfied that an injury sustained on a ride at the Royal Adelaide Show was as a result of a pre-existing medical condition rather than a safety issue with the ride.

Yesterday we were notified of an incident relating to a women who suffered an injury whilst on a ride.

SafeWork SA and the Royal Adelaide Show responded and found the injury relates to a pre-existing medical condition rather than a mechanical issue relating to the ride.

The mechanical aspect of the ride was not related to the woman's injury and SafeWork SA is satisfied that the incident is not a safety related issue.
