A 22-year-old construction worker was killed in an industrial work accident when a 6,000 lb. steel bar fell and crushed the worker. According to the report, the bar was not properly secured when it was attached.

Acme Galvanizing has been inspected the factory three times in the past 10 years, by OSHA for four different violations.
