What is ‘Line of Fire’?
Line of Fire incidents occur when the path of a moving object or the release of a hazardous energy intersects with an individual’s body.
Line of Fire is broken up into three mechanisms of injury by industry standards: Striking Hazards, Crushing Hazards, and Stored Energy.

Striking Hazard
Striking Hazards are the most frequent Line of Fire risk to workers. These are hazards that strike you, or that you strike against.
Crushing Hazard
This hazard is defined as being caught in, on, or under an object or between multiple objects. Many types of these hazards are also referred to as “pinch points”.
Stored Energy
Energy Sources are always present. Stored Energy is “pent up” energy that can be released unexpectedly such as pressure or electrical.
