Plaisted Companies · Struck against a moving object

Employee operates a wheel loader - The seat in the loader has air ride - the seat was starting to not hold air - when it would lose air it would take about 10 min to air back up - so while mining the person jarred their back and had to leave work to see a doctor. Other people had ran this loader the week before with no complaints about the seat not airing up.
