Investigation Summary
On July 20, 2012, an employee was working as a spotter for a forklift operator at a wrecking and salvage firm. The forklift was being used to load steel I-beams onto a trailer. The forklift operator had placed beams on the trailer. He then raised a beam approximately 2 feet (0.6 meters) off the trailer. The operator exited his forklift to check how much clearance he had. At this point, the I-beam slid off the forks and struck the load hold bars on the trailer. The beam then struck the employee, causing him to fall onto a concrete surface. The employee sustained head injuries, either when he was struck by the I-beam or when he fell onto the concrete surface, and he was killed.
