Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 200032332
Event: 09/11/2004
Employee falls 40 feet from forklift and dies

An employee and two coworkers were moving doors to the third floor of a construction site. The employee and coworker #1 loaded the wooden doors into a job made box. The box was lifted by coworker #2 by using the forks of a Sky Trak 10054 forklift. Once the doors were loaded, the employee and coworker #1 walked to the third floor while the forklift operator, coworker #2, raised the doors. The employee climbed over the balcony and entered the box on a third floor balcony. He passed the first door to coworker #1 and was reaching for the second door when they heard wood cracking. The employee fell 40 feet to the ground and was struck by the falling box prior to landing on the ground. He died as a result of his injuries.
