Employee killed when falls from dozer and is crushed by it

Employee #1 was standing on the tracks of a dozer while it was running. The dozer apparently jumped into reverse gear and Employee #1 fell onto the track, where he was pulled under the fender and run over. Employee #1 was crushed and killed. Before getting out of the dozer, Employee #1 had failed to reduce the throttle and engage the safety lever, which would have disengaged the transmission and set the brakes. It was also unsafe to stand on the dozer while it was running.
