This OSHA Injury Report was compiled directly from data that is publicly available from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). OSHA Injury Reports can be helpful in understanding the types of workplace injury claims involving defective products or malfunctioning equipment in the workplace.
The manufacturers of defective equipment or machinery resulting in a worker injury may be found to be negligent and liable for damages in a separate civil lawsuit. You may be able to recover damages on top of a workers’ comp claim if injured in a job accident caused, in part, by a third party. These third party personal injury cases should be given responsible legal guidance.
Trammell Piazza Law Firm claims no responsibility for any errors or inconsistencies in OSHA’s data.

Report: Struck by dislodged flying object, particle at The Holbrook Company, Inc. in Dallas, Texas
DATE: 01/13/15
A truck loader was being used to load a dump truck with concrete. A piece of rebar was sticking out of the side of the truck. The driver and injured employee tried to manually put the rebar up on the truck. The employee saw some rebar on the ground and went to kick it out of the way of the driver so he wouldn’t run over it. The rebar sticking out of the truck became dislodged and hit the employee in the left eye.
