Abstract: At approximately 3:00 p.m. on February 11, 2022, an employee filled a hydraulic reservoir with a 330-gallon metal tote of hydraulic fluid using a powered industrial vehicle (forklift). The employee was filling a hydraulic reservoir with a 330-gallon metal tote of hydraulic fluid filled to approximately 300 gallons using a powered industrial vehicle (forklift). With the forklift mast and forks in the raised position (approximately 4 - 5 feet), the employee exited the running forklift to check the fill gauge on the hydraulic reservoir. After checking the gauge, the employee approached the running forklift with the raised hydraulic oil tote and operated the forklift's tilt function to tilt the tote forward, in an attempt to speed the process of the hydraulic oil fluid transfer. At that time, the employee walked in front of the forklift and raised the hydraulic oil tote. The hydraulic oil tote slipped forward, off the downward tilted forklift forks, striking the employee in the left arm and shoulder. Employee #1 was struck by the falling tote, resulting in a fracture of the employee's left upper arm, bruised ribs, contusions to head and face, and bruised right shoulder. The employee was hospitalized and requiring surgical repair.
