Abstract: At 1:57 p.m. on July 10, 2018, an employee was serving as a delivery driver who was making a delivery for a transportation and logistics company. After parking his box-truck trailer vehicle in the front of a driveway of a private residence by the curb, he accessed the trailer portion of the truck that measured approximately 8 feet by 28 feet to unload a kitchen table. As the employee was standing on the lift gate of the truck with his back turned toward the driveway, he pulled on the side straps of the crate that contained the table. One of the straps broke and the employee fell backwards onto the asphalt curb. The employee fell approximately 4 feet, fracturing his neck and sustaining a concussion. Emergency services were contacted and, upon arrival, the employee was taken to a nearby medical facility, where he was hospitalized and received treatment. He was released six days later.
