Investigation Summary
Employee #1, the driver of truck #603, which was being loaded, was on the ground away from the loading operations, talking with the truck pusher in front of the truck. The pusher signaled the driver of truck #639 to back up and stretch out the trailer. He then left Employee #1 and went to measure the load on the loaded truck. The next time Employee #1 was observed he was being struck and run over by truck #639 and killed. Truck #639 had a plate behind the cab that restricted the rear view. It was mentioned in the interview with the pusher that no signal was given to stop the truck being backed up.
