Investigation Summary
At 2:00 p.m. on October 31, 2017, Employee #1 was laying wood (dunnage) on a flat bed Ravens trailer. Employee #1 was tasked to go to an off-site location and pick up a load of CANTS (load of wood) and return to the company. Employee #1 had set six 4 inch by 4 inch by 8 feet wood dunnage on the flatbed trailer and the forklift operator had already set a 2 by 2 of CANTS in place (front of trailer). The truck load was supposed to be 12 CANTS total (6 on the bottom and 6 stacked on top of them). The forklift operator went back to get two more. When the forklift driver returned he found Employee #1 on the ground and called on the radio for help. Employee #1 had been putting small pieces of dunnage (placed between CANTS to enable stacking and forklift access) on the trailer and fell forward. Employee #1 was taken to Wooster Community Hospital where he died. Employee #1 fell from an unspecified height and sustained many broken bones in his face and 3 fractures in his neck.
