Investigation Summary
At 12:15 p.m. on August 6, 2019, Employee #1 and two coworkers, employed by an HVAC company, were loading copper steel pipes onto a truck bed outside the employer's warehouse/shop area. They were using a forklift and an 8-foot sling strap to load a 26-foot, 494-pound pipe when the strap slipped off the fork, causing the pipe to fall and crush Employee #1's arm. Employee #1 was transported and admitted to the hospital for treatment of a fractured arm.
