Investigation Summary
At 8:00 a.m. on April 13, 2017, Employee #1, employed by a dock equipment and service company, was working at a warehouse loading dock. He was performing routine maintenance. The loading dock leveler was lifted, and Employee #1 went under the leveler to block/secure it. The leveler fell, striking, trapping and crushing Employee #1's left hand. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was admitted and treated for a crushing injury that required surgery to his hand. During the subsequent investigation, it was determined that the leveler had not been de-energized or disengaged or mechanically blocked to prevent inadvertent movement.
