Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:00 a.m. on September 19, 2013, Employee #1 and Coworker #1, of Certified Concrete, Inc., were working at a commercial building job site. Coworker #1 was operating a Bobcat 863 Skid Steer Loader with 18-inch auger attachment, Serial Number 514442281, to drill a 16-inch hole for installing an electric pole at the site. Employee #1 was assisting Coworker #1. As Coworker #1 moved the Bobcat away from the hole, Employee #1 checked the hole's depth. Employee #1 asked Coworker #1 to back up the Bobcat and reposition the auger above the hole for further drilling to the required depth. During the repositioning, Employee #1 moved toward the hole. As Coworker #1 was driving the Bobcat in reverse, the vehicle's rear wheel drove over a small rock. The bump caused the auger to swing. The auger struck Employee #1's chest. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to a hospital. He was admitted and treated for bruising and contusion of the chest area. The employer reported this incident to Cal/OSHA on September 19, 2013, meeting the reporting requirement. During Cal/OSHA's subsequent investigation, it was determined that the employer was a concrete subcontractor for the construction project, a renovation of a retail shopping center.
