Investigation Summary
At 6:55 a.m. on March 3, 2021, an employee working for a produce farm was walking to her work location at the start of her shift. A Coworker #1 drove up in a pickup truck with a bathroom trailer hitched behind the truck tailgate and offered her a ride in the truck bed. Coworker #1 saw the employee get into the truck bed and slowly started to drive away. As he was driving, Coworker #2, who was also riding in the bed of the truck, told Coworker #1 that the employee fell out of the truck bed. Coworker #1 stopped the truck to assist the employee. The employee was hospitalized to treat a fractured pelvis.
