Investigation Summary
At 2:30 p.m., on October 11, 2005, Employee #1 was sand blasting at an elevated location under a bridge, for the Security Paving Company. When it was time to go home, Employee #1 went to the platform (Serial Number 7BJ01888) and waited for the forklift operator to return to lower the platform to the ground level. While Employee #1 was inside the platform and the operator was away, the forklift slipped down, causing the forks to scrape against the bridge structure. In an attempt to gain his balance, Employee #1 grabbed the front of the platform with one hand and the back with the other. As the forks scraped the bridge, the platform was pushed back against the mast. The employee's finger was crushed between the mast and the back of the platform frame. He was treated at Henry Mayo Hospital for an amputation to the tip of his right middle finger.
