C) A worker was hit by the counterweight and revolving superstructure of an excavator when he walked into the restricted area is an example of a caught-in hazard. The caught-in hazard is one of the four most dangerous hazards in the construction site. A caught-in hazard happens when a worker caught in between two different objects that caused an injury or death.
