At the jobsite, an employee was exposed to a struck by hazard in that the employee was permitted to ride as a passenger in the bucket of the skid steer loader.

One feasible means of abatement to correct this hazard is to comply with the manufacturer's recommendations which state, "Do not allow passengers to ride on the loader at any time."
