An employee was rigging and lifting an 8-by 8-inch by 14-foot steel beam located on a 40-foot chassis trailer. A forklift was being used to lift the beam off the trailer. The employee signaled the forklift operator to lift the beam, the beam hit a wooden 2-by 4-inch sticker and the lifting chain broke. The beam struck the top of the employee's right foot fracturing it in three places. The employee was hospitalized at Ketchikan General Hospital for his injuries.
