The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is investigating the death of a 61-year-old worker, Kevin Lancaster, at a Rivian warehouse in Illinois. He died from blunt traumatic compressional injuries after being pinned between a tractor trailer and a loading dock. The investigation may take up to six months. Rivian's safety record has faced scrutiny, with previous violations noted, but the company has reportedly improved its safety measures. The local police and coroner are also investigating the incident.
