Hazard
In van-type vehicles, the door attachment structure (rear double doors, rear upswing doors, and side-hinged doors) is inadequate, causing plastic hinges to degrade and fracture due to atmospheric ozone, ultraviolet light, and other factors. If a door fractures and detaches during opening, it may fall and injure workers.

バン型車両において、扉（後観音扉、後はね上げ扉及び側片開扉）の取付部構造が不適切なため、樹脂製ヒンジが大気のオゾン、紫外線等により劣化し破断すると、扉開放時に扉が外れ落下して、作業者に危害を加えるおそれがある。
Remedy
Install safety belts connecting each door to its frame at two locations (upper and lower positions; left and right for upswing doors). Inspect the hinges and replace any with visible cracks with new units.
