the
operator was crushed between the dumpster and the side of the truck.
b.Truck #1 - Employees tipping dumpsters into the truck were not locking
the
trunnion bar of the dumpster prior to tipping the dumpsters up.  In the

crushed
between the dumpster and the side of the truck.
c.Truck #2 - Employees tipping dumpsters into the truck were not locking
the
trunnion bar of the dumpster prior to tipping the dumpsters up.  In the

crushed
between the dumpster and the side of the truck.
Among other methods, one feasible method of abatement is to ensure that
the company develops

ensure that the policies
are followed to ensure that the trunnion bars of the dumpsters are locked
into place prior to
tipping the dumpsters.
e.Truck #10 - This truck was not equipped with locking devices for
employees to
