While manufactured housing production centers have safety procedures that routinely perform by keeping construction team members safe, injuries and even occasion deaths do occur. Perhaps because of Clayton Homes’ profile, or maybe due to their market share, for whatever reasons local and mainstream media reports seem to reflect a higher incident rate with Clayton for injuries, threats, or fatalities. ABC 15 editor said: “Editor’s note: Buckeye police initially reported the name of the business involved was Schultz Manufacturing, but later clarified it was Clayton Homes. The story has since been updated.”
“A man was badly hurt and taken to the hospital Tuesday morning after a manufactured home collapsed on top of him in Buckeye, according to the Buckeye Police Department.”
The initial report began as follows.
“BUCKEYE Ariz. – Firefighters say a man has life-threatening injuries after a manufactured home collapsed while it was being assembled at a Buckeye business.”
Just before 9am Buckeye Fire responded to a call near Southern and Apache. A 21 yr old male had been working on a manufactured home that was being assembled when it fell on him. He has been airlifted to a local trauma center w/ life threatening injuries. BPD is investigating. pic.twitter.com/NiFHXEXjx6

The ABC 15 update said that “A worker will be OK after a manufactured home collapsed while he was working on it Tuesday morning in Buckeye, according to the Buckeye Police Department.
In a Tuesday afternoon tweet, Buckeye police said the 21-year-old worker was listed in stable condition at the hospital and was considered to have non-life-threatening injuries. Previously, Buckeye police said the man was taken to the hospital with serious injuries.”
**UPDATE**
A 21-year-old man who was hurt today while assembling a manufactured home at a facility near Southern and Apache is now stable with non-life threatening injuries. Buckeye Police are investigating what happened with assistance from OSHA. pic.twitter.com/4wPvvMC2l9— Buckeye Police Dept (@BuckeyeAZPD) November 2, 2021
As was noted above, for whatever reasons, Clayton seems to stir up more such reports that others. Some examples are as follows.
Additionally, despite Clayton Homes’ promoting their self-proclaimed wonderful workplace for team members, there is a different image painted by Indeed, Pissed Consumer and other sources. In fairness, for outsiders looking in, workplace injuries occur with conventional construction too. That noted, it will be interesting to see what the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), which has been called into investigate the matter.
Three of the posted comments on the YouTube video are these:
- “We live very close to this place. My son worked there for a few months seven years ago. He quit over safety concerns and poor management. Godspeed to the young man injured. Wishing him a speedy full recovery!”
- “I doubt it [the manufactured home] It fell while the were setting it up more than likely. I’ve had 2 fall over the years and normally it has a lot to do with no safeties under the beams for just such a thing.”
- “That is the last we we will hear about this story”
