Bridge and gantry crane serious incidents 
In September 2023, two young workers were injured when a bundle of steel lengths weighing over one tonne fell from a bridge crane (overhead travelling crane). Initial investigations indicate a lifting chain slipped off one end of the bundle of steel while it was being moved using a dual hoist bridge crane inside a warehouse. The bundle fell, striking a worker and a second worker was injured while assisting the first.
In October 2023, a worker suffered serious leg and foot injuries after being struck by a gantry crane wheel. Initial enquiries indicate he was using a jackhammer close to the crane’s rail system when the crane began operating and one of its wheels struck him.
IMPORTANT: These findings are not yet confirmed, and investigations are continuing into the exact cause.
