http://www.kiprc.uky.edu/projects/KOSHS/ Please incorporate the recommendations on how this fatality could have been prevented into your safety program. Also, feel free to share this information with others you believe can benefit from it.
The KY FACE program studies occupational fatalities that occur in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. From this information, worker fatality trends are identified and recommendations for prevention are made. Prevention materials are then developed and disseminated to businesses in Kentucky.
If you have any questions concerning the FACE Program or any of our materials, or if you would like to be removed from the list to receive HazAlerts, please do not hesitate to contact me. Also, if you would like to add additional contacts to our distribution lists, please let us know that as well. My phone number is (859)-323-2981, or I can be reached at the above email address.
Thank you, and have a great day!
