Abstract: On April 5, 2008, Employee #1 was working in Warehouse #3, stacking boxes of water. A coworker was filling a different order for shipment that required a mixed pallet. The coworker completed his pallet and wrapped it for shipping. The coworker then loaded his pallet onto the Yale forklift, Model Number ERC065ZGN36TQ084, and Serial Number E108V12770X. The load obstructed the coworker's line of sight, but he noticed that there were other employees in the area. He was unable to drive the forklift in reverse, so after rechecking the positions of the other employees, he began moving forward with his load. He had only driven three feet when he heard a scream and reversed the forklift. Employee #1 was lying on the ground with two fractures in his left leg. Employee #1 was hospitalized for treatment.
