Event: 12/26/1991

Employee knocked unconscious when struck by tow chain

As a coworker was operating a forklift truck, the front wheels became lodged between the loading dock and truck bed. In an attempt to dislodge the forklift, Employee #1, another forklift driver, hooked a chain to the rear of the stuck forklift. Instead of the chain gently pulling the stuck forklift, slack was taken in the chain and the forklift suddenly jerked back. The chain broke and whipped around, striking Employee #1 in the head and knocking him unconscious. He was subsequently taken to the hospital for examination and released the same day. Employee #1 returned to work.
