Investigation Summary
On September 3, 2010, Employee #1, a new laborer, and a coworker were loading granite slabs onto a make-shift wooden A-frame, located inside of a container. They began loading one slab at a time on each side of the A-frame rack using a Toyota fork lift, Model Number FU28- 5FG30 with a 6,000-lb capacity. The forklift had a blue extension boom and clamp device. After loading five slabs on each side of the A-frame, they loaded 13 more slabs on the left side, and then proceeded to load more slabs onto the right side. As they were loading the second or third slab to the right side, the pile of 18 slabs from the left side became unstable and tipped over, pinning Employee #1 against the side of the container, killing him.
