Investigation Summary
On January 2, 2007, an employee was placing dunnage underneath the sheet metal. A coworker, an employer, was operating a powered industrial forklift loading sheet metal onto a flatbed truck. As the coworker was loading the sheet metal onto the flatbed truck one of the bands holding the sheet metal together either broke or the clamp was not properly secured. The back band failed and the load of sheet metal slid forward onto the employee, pinning him under the sheet metal and against a dumpster. The employee was hospitalized and treated for fractured leg and a dislocated knee.
