Employee Struck by Falling Pole and Dies Later

Employees were cleaning out a warehouse of a warehousing and logistics company and transferring the material to a new facility. An employee was using a Nissan Forklift, Model Number CWPO2L25S, to remove a steel safety pole located at the end of an aisle. The employee used the forklift to pry the base plate of the safety pole from the floor. Employee #1 was standing on the south side of the safety pole observing the process. When the forklift lifted up on the base plate the bolt on the northwest corner of the base plate broke. The safety pole fell and struck Employee #1 in the head. Employee #1 was hospitalized and pronounced dead on December 31, 2004.
