Workers were lifting an LED wall screen using an electric winch when the clamp failed to properly fasten to the LED, causing it to fall from a height of around four meters. No injuries occurred but damage is still being assessed. The incident was caused by a lack of supervision ensuring the hooks were properly tightened before lifting. Corrective actions include ensuring workers check hooks are tight and no one stands under a lifted load.
