Investigation Summary
On September 30, 2008, Employee #1, a truck driver, was operating a Toyota forklift, Model Number 7FGCU25, in the yard of the employer's warehouse. While he was driving the forklift, he came in close proximity to a parked freight truck that had its back door open. Without placing the forklift in neutral, he exited the forklift to close the door. The forklift continued moving forward, pinning Employee #1 against the parked freight truck. Emergency services were contacted and Employee #1 was taken to Saint Francis Medical Center, where he was hospitalized and treated for fractured ribs, as well as a damaged liver and lung. During the accident investigation, Employee #1 stated that he had put the forklift in neutral and set its brakes before exiting, but the forklift continued to move forward anyway.
