Investigation Summary
At 10:00 a.m. on October 4, 2018, an employee was working as part of a crew installing underground utility lines. At some point the employee entered the trench to repair a line that had become detached. At the same time a coworker, operating a backhoe loader, was dumping sand into the trench using the backhoe bucket. During a pass dumping sand in the trench, the employee was struck-by the bucket of the backhoe and was injured. The employee was hospitalized with leg and pelvis fractures.
