Employee Is Struck by Forklift and Sustains Fracture

On April 4, 2012, Employee #1 was working for a firm that manufactured fixtures for offices and stores. He was walking from the firm's shipping office after dropping off paperwork for a trucking company's bill of lading to be entered into the computer. Employee #1 was walking along the edge of some pallets and was not looking in the direction of where a forklift was being operated. Employee #1 made a sudden turn to the right to go to his workstation, and he was struck by the forklift. His leg was trapped between the two rear wheels, and he sustained a fracture.
