Investigation Summary
At 11:30 a.m. on May 2, 2017, an employee was loading potted plants onto a transport wagon to be moved to a staging area. The employee was sitting unsecured on a privately manufactured plant transport wagon that was 12 feet, 6 inches long, 4 feet, 4 inches wide and 2 feet high loaded with 2 pallets, each 4 feet wide by 6 feet long, containing potted plants of various heights. When the tractor, a John Deere 5045E(Number 15) towing 3 wagons, was being operated by a coworker. The coworker was making a left turn by hoop house BC1, and the employee was ejected from Wagon Number 2 resulting in a fall of 2 feet into the 34 inch tongue space between Wagons Number 2 and 3. This resulted in the employee being run over, and struck by the 20 inch wheels and undercarriage of Wagon Number 3, which only had a ground clearance of 8 inches. The employee sustained an injured arm, fractured ribs, and facial lacerations and was hospitalized.
