Wooden trusses slide off trailer, strikes and breaks employe

At 9:30 a.m. on April 6, 2020, an employee was working as a laborer for a firm that manufactured wooden trusses. He was working in the firm's materials yard. He was loading a pack or bundle of small wooden trusses onto a trailer that was to carry them away for delivery. He was using a Mastercraft C1011126 forklift to load the wooden trusses onto the trailer. A pack of mono trusses already on the trailer was not positioned correctly, so the employee got off his forklift to reposition them. The trusses slid off the trailer, striking the employee's left knee and knocking him to the ground. The employee's left kneecap was broken. The employee was hospitalized.
