  1. MNM Fatal 2008-19 • Fall of Person Accident • October 11, 2008 (Missouri) • Cement Operation • Cement Handler • 67 years old • 3 years experience

  2. Overview The victim was fatally injured when he fell through an open hatch on a barge while attempting to cover a dust collection hatch with a tarp. He landed on the barge floor 20 feet below.

  3. Root Cause A risk assessment was not conducted at the barge loading facility to identify all hazards to protect persons loading material on the tops of the barges. Management did not provide a fall protection system where persons were in danger of falling.

  4. Best Practices • Establish and discuss safe work procedures. Identify and control all hazards to finish the job safely. • Train all persons to recognize and understand safe job procedures before beginning work. • Wear fall protection where there is a danger of falling.
