Abstract: On September 25, 2003, Employee #1, a farm labor contractor, was harvesting olives in an olive orchard. He was dumping small trays that contained picked olives into bins located on a bin trailer. A Massey Ferguson tractor was pulling the trailer. The employee slipped on a running board located on the side of the bin trailer and fell. His pants became entangled between the trailer tire and the end of the running board and he was pinned to the ground by the tire. He was transported by helicopter to Enloe Medical Center in Chico, CA where he underwent surgery to repair a deviated pelvic bone, remove dead tissue on the right side of inner thigh, and repair ligament damage to his right knee. The employee was hospitalized for 15 days and was later transferred to a rehabilitation center.
