Recorded fatalities relative to other controllers with a fatal MSHA history. Percentile is computed across the 590 controllers with at least one recorded fatality.
More recorded fatalities than 0% of controllers on file.
Position when controllers are sorted by recorded fatalities.
Industry mean: 2.0 fatalities per fatal-history controller.
Methodology: percentile and rank computed across MSHA controllers with at least one recorded fatality. Industry mean is the average across that same population. Peers are sampled by closest total-incident count, regardless of fatality outcome.
Utility operator was preparing to wash out the rail scale. The loader operator was weighing the loader on the scale. The loader operator announced on the radio that he was moving the loader off the scale. He slowly moved forward when he observed the utility operator on the ground. The utility operator apparently fell and was crushed by the front left tire of the loader.
