I work in a dangerous industry
There was an incident 2 days ago at a heavy industry business a few doors from my place of work.
A 16 year old male was using an overhead crane and unfortunately he was standing directly below the suspended load.
Something gave way and the load fell on him. He died of a crush injury.
I use overhead cranes moving loads up to 10 tons. At any moment there could be equipment failure.
With this in mind, we never stand under a suspended load.
A 16 year old does not understand what can go wrong and it was up to his fellow workers to look out for him.
A tragedy that should never have happened.
