Investigation Summary
At 1:30 p.m. on January 11, 2022, an employee operated a Genie extendible boom forklift (Model # GTH-1056). At some point, the employee stopped the forklift and set the parking brake but left the machine running and controls operational while the employee reached out and under the forklift boom for an unknown reason. The employee somehow contacted the main boom control lever and caused the boom to lower down onto the employee and crush them between the boom and the forklift body. The employee was later found killed by three coworkers, still caught between the boom and forklift body.
