Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:00 a.m., Employee #1, a forklift operator who had been employed by McLane Sunwest Grocery Distribution for four years, and two coworkers were taking inventory in a warehouse. Employee #1 and one coworker were elevated 12 ft in a platform attached to a forklift truck. Employee #1 fell through the safety chain across the top of the platform to the concrete floor, sustaining serious injuries to her head and pelvis. The safety chain was a lightweight chain equipped with an S hook--not a safety hook.
