Employee incurs concussion when struck in head by loader buc

At 12:00 p.m. on January 22, 2021, Employee #1 and a coworker, employed by a construction company, were working on a road repair project. Employee #1 was watching as his coworker operated a front end loader to scrape frozen aggregate from a sidewalk. Thinking the loader had completed the scraping in that space, Employee #1 moved forward with a torch to melt the frozen aggregate that had been scraped. However, the loader operator moved the loader bucket to do a second scrape. Employee #1, who was wearing a hard hat, was struck in the head by the bucket. Employee #1 was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment of a concussion and a strained neck.
