Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 170743041
Event: 10/26/1994
Employee killed when struck by palletized lumber

On or about October 26, 1994, an employee was using a forklift to unload a truck of palletized lumber. Each pallet weighed approximately two tons and the forklift had a capacity of 4,600 lb. Employee #1, a truck driver, was assisting the forklift operator by taking off the wraps and uncovering the load. The forklift operator, sensing that the truck driver was in a hurry, lifted two pallets of the lumber at the same time. As he backed away from the truck, the forklift hit a bump in the road, and the top pallet fell off. It landed on Employee #1, who was standing between the load and the truck, crushing him under the weight. He sustained massive head injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
