Investigation Summary
On April 18, 2007, Employee #1, a welder, was welding on a flat bed trailer. In a wash booth, approximately 50 ft away, four coworkers, assisted by the supervisor, were manually pushing another trailer towards Employee #1. They were pushing without checking to see if the area was clear. They could not see Employee #1 when the trailer struck him. They continued pushing the trailer and pinned Employee #1 between the two trailers. Employee #1 received severe internal injuries and later died.
