Analyst brief
Dematic's record contains one 2016 entry: a worker killed after being pinned by a mobile work platform during installation of a Dematic conveyor system, classified as a fatality at severity 5. The incident occurred during installation/commissioning rather than in steady-state operation, and the record shows one occurrence with no indication of a broader pattern. Category standing here is driven entirely by severity, not by incident count.
