Investigation Summary

At 07:00 a.m. on February 22, 2022, an employee was standing with a coworker waiting for instructions for placement of concrete mixers for the pouring of a slab for a boat storage facility. The coworker got directions to place the mixer truck and advised the employee that he was going to move the truck. The employee nodded and the coworker got in the mixer truck, checked side mirrors, put the truck in reverse which activated the back-up alarm and began backing up, all the while checking the side mirrors. Another coworker began sounding a horn and motioned at the first coworker. The coworker driving the mixer truck pulled forward, stopped and got out to see what was happening. The employee had been struck and runover by the mixer truck. Both of the employee's legs were fractured as a result of being runover and was admitted and treated at the hospital.
