On October 25, 2023, an employee was in the warehouse driving a forklift toward the dock door. The forklift struck a conveyor belt and the employee sustained broken ribs.
An employee was using a walkie-rider to load a trailer. As she turned a corner, the walkie-rider struck the trailer and the employee was thrown to the ground. She was hospitalized with a fractured left leg.
An employee had dumped a load of hot mix (tar) and was cleaning the interior walls of a belly dump trailer onsite. The employee was scraping the walls of the trailer when the doors articulated, breaking the securement pin and pinching the employee's legs. The employee sustained crushing injuries and severed tendons and arteries to both legs and was hospitalized.
An employee was transferring sulfuric acid into a customer's tank. They connected the transfer hose to the receiving tank and attached the compressed air line used to pressurize the trailer. An air valve opened during unloading and a small amount of sulfuric acid got under the employee's face shield and onto their face. The employee suffered third-degree chemical burns to their face, right ear, and chest.
An employee was working to adjust a misfed pallet board that was entering the pallet board collection point. His left middle fingertip became caught between the board he was adjusting and other boards already stacked in the collection area. This resulted in amputation of the fingertip.
On July 22, 2025, at approximately 4:30 a.m. after the previous day's shift, an employee was hospitalized with a kidney injury caused by heat-related illness. The employee had worked several consecutive days delivering packages in high outdoor heat and humidity without cooling gear.
On July 18, 2025, an employee was tarping a load on a flatbed trailer in the yard. He fell approximately 13 feet off the loaded trailer and landed face-down on a gravel lot.

An employee was checking a pole-type transformer tank for leaks. A hydraulic clamping device was lowered onto his right thumb and crushed it against the sharp edge of the bottom of the tank. He suffered a partial transphalangeal amputation to the thumb.
The injured employee was standing behind a table. She jumped out to scare another employee, but tripped and fell on the tile floor, injuring her right ankle/foot. She was hospitalized with a dislocated ankle that required surgery.
An employee was going into a trailer to mark product for shipment and the trailer pulled away from the dock. The employee fell out of the trailer, contacted the dock plate, and then fell to the ground. The employee was hospitalized with a punctured lung, fractured ribs, and contusions.
An employee was hooking up bundled tie-downs with a chain. While he was holding a hook, the other hook was unlocked. This caused the employee's hook to slide down and pinch his right index finger between the chain and the shackle. He suffered an amputation to the fingertip (without bone loss), as well as an open fracture.
An employee was operating a gas tugger to lift metal sheeting. His left hand was pulled into the pulley, which crushed his left thumb, resulting in avulsions and other tissue damage. He was hospitalized and required surgery.
