Warehouse Forklift Runover Fatality 2003 Powered Industrial Truck #safetyhistory #forkliftsafety

A worker attempted to jump onto a moving forklift — and was run over by the rear tire.

On March 5, 2003, at a storage yard in California, an employee tried to board a forklift while it was still in motion. He missed the step and fell into the path of the rear wheel. OSHA documented the fatal runover in its investigation summary.

Forklifts are built for one operator unless specifically designed with an approved passenger seat. Boarding moving equipment and allowing riders creates severe runover hazards.

Safe work is smart work.
