An employee was working to build an electrical substation. He was cleaning out the inside of a fixed section of a PVC pipe on the end that was furthest from an excavator. The excavator was outside of the trench and more than 25 feet away when it moved a pipe, pinching the employee's right arm between the two pipes. The employee's forearm was fractured.

An employee was anchored to a movable piece of equipment called a "lid" with a self-retracting lifeline harness. An overhead crane lifted the equipment, causing the employee to be pulled by his harness. The employee was pulled off the walkway and swung over the wall of the kiln. His body and head struck the wall. The employee lost consciousness and sustained a laceration to the side of his head that required stitches. The employee also sustained multiple fractured ribs and fractured vertebrae.

An employee was in a scissor lift, preparing to strip formwork from the underside of a concrete deck. As the lift was ascending, the employee's left little finger was pinched between the lift rail and the concrete beam above. The employee was hospitalized, and the soft tissue of their left little fingertip was amputated; the finger's bony tuft was also damaged.

An employee was operating an order picker when his left middle finger was crushed between the lift and storage racking. The employee's fingertip was amputated.

An employee was ascending in a scissor lift when his left thumb was caught between between the railing of the lift and a piece of equipment installed in the ceiling. The employee's thumb tip was amputated.
