Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:48 a.m. on April 6, 2017, an employee was assisting a coworker to relocate a load of steel sheets that weighed approximately 1,400 pounds to a staging area where a forklift could take it away. The employee attempted to move a table that was blocking the final resting place of the load. The employee walked under the raised load of metal and the load fell and crushed the employee to death. The raised load was hoisted by two canvas slings attached to four hooks. One loop of one of the slings was not seated in the throat of the hook and slipped from the hook and fell as the employee was under the load.
