Event: 09/29/1997

EMPLOYEE INJURED WHEN STRUCK BY FALLING RECYCLE LOAD

Employee #1 was attempting to dump his recycle load when he noticed that the door was jammed. He climbed up onto the recycle bin he was trying to dump his load into, and tried to unjam the door by kicking it. The door came free and opened, spilling the load of recycled material on top of him, pushing him into the dumpster. Employee #1 landed on his head. Workers at the North Bend Senior Center noticed his truck was unattended and that the load was suspended in the air. They found Employee #1 in the bin covered with cardboard. They noticed he was bleeding and called emergency services. Local Emergency Medical Services personnel arrived and transported him to the hospital. He was then flown to OHSU in Portland.
