osha usually has rules for people working with equipment like that in regards to hair and clothing.

They aren't going to like the new rules either.


What are the chances that the rules were already there but being ignored or were previously there and rescinded due to "racism"?

There should have been an emergency stop button on the conveyor to prevent this. All the equipment at my job have E-stops


Most if not all belt loaders have a stop button on on sides and end of the machine.

Depending on the speed they were running the belt it might not have even mattered.

It doesn’t take much, untucked shirt, glove, hair obviously and you can quickly have a very bad day.


I know a guy who was drug probably 200 feet when his safety vest got caught on a baggage cart that was being pulled by a tug. The guy driving obviously didn't know since he couldn't hear the guy screaming or feel hin dragging the guy.

Well said.

These are the very same posters that often post about society going to shite without realizing they are part of that problem. Human decency has gone out the window because all people see now is black vs. white, red vs. blue. Sad.
