Abstract: At 1:45 p.m. on July 30, 2024, Employee #1, a sorter/laborer employed by a recycling facility, was walking across the area where materials were being dumped. The employee's role involved directing vehicles to dispose of trash and sorting through materials for recycling. While crossing the facility, a front-end loader carrying a large steel tamper box used to compact materials on the scales entered the area. The steel tamper box struck the employee, knocking him down and causing him to fall under the tires of the front-end loader. The employee was crushed and died from the fatal injuries. The incident occurred in a high-traffic area where vehicles and heavy equipment were operating, and the employer has been cited for safety violations related to vehicle and pedestrian separation.
