Employee injured when pinned by shifting trailer

On June 27, 2007, Employee #1, a crew supervisor, and coworkers were preparing an approximately 12 ft wide by 60 ft long mobile office trailer for transport. Two coworkers were placing materials inside of the trailer when it shifted, pinning Employee #1 underneath its outer edge. He sustained injuries that required hospitalization. Before the accident, Employee #1 had removed a support jack from underneath the trailer. The crew had not placed cribbing underneath each of the corners of the mobile office trailer, as required by T8CCR 3562(e), prior to entering the danger zone.
