Investigation Summary
On June 22, 2011, Employee #1, a Personnel Plus temporary employee, was working as a loader/unloader at Kelly Global Logistics, Inc., where he was unloading merchandise from a storage truck. Employees #1 and #2 were using hand operated pallet jacks to unload the merchandise. As Employee#1 pulled the pallet of wrapped merchandise, it became stuck. He forcibly pulled on the handle of the pallet jack and the wrapped merchandise began to move in his direction. He dropped the pallet jack's handle and started to move backwards. As he did so, he lost his balance and fell, hitting his head on the concrete floor. Employee #2 looked in the direction of Employee #1, when he heard the pallet load shift. As he exited the truck, he saw Employee #1 lying on the floor and called 911. Los Angeles County Fire Dept. responded to the site and transferred him to Harbor General in Torrance, CA., where he was treated for head injuries. Employee #1 died on June 29, 2011.
