Investigation Summary
At about 2:00 p.m. on April 27, 1999, Employee #1 was struck down with a 1,300-lb switch gear, which tipped over on a forklift. At the time of the accident Employee #1 was standing adjacent to the load, a switchgear, which was being loaded onto a flatbed truck. The narrow and top-heavy load, which was situated parallel to the forks, started to tip towards Employee #1. At first, he tried to right the load, but was overcome by the weight. The load continued to fall and knocked Employee #1 down pinning his hip to the ground. The witness, who was standing on the flatbed, jumped down and pulled up on the load enough so that Employee #1 could pull himself from under the load. He was hospitalized.
