Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:00 p.m. on August 24, 2013, Employee #1, a 27-year-old male with Kockenbangner Brewing Company, DBA Stone Brewery, was operating a Yale Forklift, (Model Number ENP030VTN36TE082 and Serial Number G807N04581L). Employee #1 was operating a Yale forklift in the Brewery production area with the forklift tines approximately 36 in. above the ground. Employee #1 got off the forklift to dispense some chemical into a small hand held secondary container. After obtaining the chemical, Employee #1 returned to the forklift and started driving forward. Surveillance video provided by Stone Brewery indicated that Employee #1 sat down on the forklift seat and began driving the forklift forward without attaching or using the operator restraint system, the seat belt. A coworker stated that he was walking from the Cellar going to the Brewers Lab and saw Employee #1 driving the forklift in a forward direction with no load on the forklift tines. Employee #1 turned his head to his left and made eye contact with a coworker as he was going forward.
