Abstract: At 4:00 p.m. on January 24, 2017, Employee #1 and a coworker were operating standup powered industrial trucks in a warehouse/shipping area. After the coworker used a powered industrial truck to deliver a load of chair parts into an assigned outgoing lane, Employee #1 pulled up behind the employee and began adjusting his equipment controls. As the coworker began backing out of his lane, he ran into Employee #1, who was stepping off his machine. Employee #1's left leg was caught between the two lifts, resulting in a broken leg. He was hospitalized and treated for his injury
