Investigation Summary
An employee was delivering a load of small diameter pulp logs to Southport Forest Products. He entered the log yard and was directed to the unloading area. The front end loader operator placed the forks of the loader on top of the load on the drivers' side in an attempt to secure the load. While the front end loader operator was completing paperwork, the employee proceeded to the opposite side of the load to release the binders and remove the two remaining wrappers. He removed the front wrapper and placed it in the rack. While proceeding to remove the rear wrapper, a log fell from the top of the load and struck him on the head and torso. Emergency medical services were called and transported him to a local hospital. He received various injuries to his body and was hospitalized.
