Hazard
In van-type vehicles, the mounting structure of the upper hinged door attached to the vehicle rear is inadequate, causing the plastic hinges at the door upper edge to degrade and fracture due to atmospheric ozone, ultraviolet light, and similar factors. When the door is opened, the door may detach and fall, potentially injuring workers.

Remedy
Install safety belts on both left and right sides of the hinged door on all vehicles. Additionally, inspect the hinges in question and replace any hinges showing visible cracks with new units.
