An employee was walking in an aisle while a forklift operator was approaching with a cart on the front of a forklift. He saw the employee at the last moment and pressed the brakes all the way to the floor. The load shifted, rolled forward, and hit the employee, injuring her right hip and left hand. She was hospitalized.
