Abstract: On September 28, 2009, Employee #1 was operating a Kubota tractor. He stopped the tractor and dismounted the operator's seat to look at an object on the ground. While he was climbing back on the tractor, his hand inadvertently engaged the gear shift. The vehicle was placed in reverse, and Employee #1 was knocked from the tractor. As this occurred, the tractor continued to move backwards, rolling over Employee #1's left leg. Employee #1 was taken to Fresno Community Hospital, where he was hospitalized and treated for a fracture on his left leg. The incident investigation noted that the designated employer was a farm labor contractor.
