Incident on Mar 20, 2019: Employee's leg is fractured when struck by falling beam
At 1:00 p.m. on March 20, 2019, Employee #1, Coworker #1, and fellow crew members were engaged in renovation work at a multifamily residential building. They were installing beams that measured 40 feet by 5.25 inches by 14 inches to the building's patio decks. Coworker #1 was operating a Kubota SVL 75-2 Loader with a fork lift attachment to lift and place a beam on top of a post with caps. The beam became stuck. Employee #1 attempted to free the beam, and it fell, striking Employee #1's right leg. The employee was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment of a lower leg fracture.
