The Department of Labour investigated the company after the accident involving a Remarkables Ski Area worker on July 24.
Department spokesman Eric Janse van Rensburg said the company was issued with a written warning regarding the hazard. The department had provided information to assist with hazard management, he said.
"The company is currently reviewing its snow removal system and its entire hazard management system. By undertaking these improvements, a safer workplace will result," he said.
Skifield manager Ross Lawrence said a 20-year-old Australian, a first-year employee in the lift department, was clearing snow from under a magic carpet conveyer lift when her gloved hand was caught in the machine. The lift was stopped immediately and the belt cut to release her arm.
She was attended to on the field then taken by ambulance to Lakes District Hospital for an X-ray, before being transferred to Southland Hospital for surgery to her broken upper arm.
Mr Lawrence said she had returned to Australia and was now "doing well".
He said the skifield would be reviewing its processes to improve the lift operation.
The company had a good relationship with the department, he said.
