Investigation Summary
On July 16, 2007, Employee #1 and a coworker, who was operating a variable-reach forklift, were off-loading framing lumber from trucks. Employee #1 placed 2 by 4 support boards under the loads to support them and also to allow the forks to be extracted. The coworker overloaded the forklift with two 80-unit bundles of 16 ft long 2-by-12s. The load was reaching its landing spot when one of the support boards fell over flat. Employee #1 was approaching the load from the front when the top bundle rolled off and struck him. He sustained a fractured left wrist, two fractured ribs, and a fractured pelvis, for which he was hospitalized.
