Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was working in a warehouse with storage racks full of plumbing fixtures, bathtubs, showers and other bathroom materials. The storage rows are 13.5 ft wide with a storage rack on each side (north and south). Employee #1 was taking a pallet of material down from the southern storage rack using a Raymond, Industrial Reach Truck. Employee #1 had lowered the pallet approximately 14 ft to the ground, with the reach fully extended and realized that the material he was searching for had been placed on the wrong shelf. Employee #1 raised the load and attempted to place the material back on the shelf but was having trouble getting it back on the shelf. While backing away from the southern rack, with the material elevated to 14 ft, and the load fully extended, Employee #1 bent down and leaned back to gain better visibility. Employee #1 struck the rack behind him and crushed the lower part of his body between the industrial truck and steel rack. Employee #1 suffered fractures and was hospitalized.
