Investigation Summary
On March 8, 2003, Employee #1 was using an overhead alloy steel sling to lift a 440 pound jig. The sling broke and the suspended 440 pound jig struck Employee #1. He fell to the ground. Employee #1 was hospitalized and treated for multiple lacerations to his shoulders and head. A detailed investigation determined that the chains used for lifting the 440 pound jig were not inspected before each use, and there was visible oxidation on the link that failed.
