Employee's leg amputated when run over by compactor

Employee #1 was checking the grade on the pad of a building. He was behind a steel-wheeled, 85-ton compactor when the vehicle backed over him, amputating his left leg. Employee #1 was not in the compactor operator's line of sight, and he had apparently become complacent about the back-up alarm. Employee #1 had been on the job for three months at the time of the accident.
