Abstract: On November 24, 2013, Employee #1, a material handler, was throwing trash from a wooden trash bin into a dumpster. The wooden trash bin was attached to a forklift and raised to the opening of the dumpster. Employee #1 climbed inside the wooden bin when the trash bin was almost empty to continue to remove the remaining amount of trash. As he climbed in the bin and removed the remainder of the trash, the trash bin was dislodged from the fork, falling to the ground. He fell with the trash bin, suffering wrist, arm fractures and a forehead laceration in the fall. A coworker transported Employee #1 to a medical center, where he received treatment and was then hospitalized.
