Employee sustains chest injuries when caught between scaffol

At 10:30 a.m. on May 23, 2017, Employee #1 was using a hand-held angle grinder to grind out the aged grout between bricks located on an exterior wall. The employee was working off of a swing stage scaffold that was positioned such that it was inserted into a notch in the structure that was big enough for the scaffold. As the employee worked to grind the grout on the wall along the end of the scaffold, he reached around the motor that raises and lowers the scaffold, and unintentionally depressed the button that raises the scaffold. Employee #1's body became pinched between the scaffold motor and the side of the structure. The employee lost consciousness and sustained a bruised chest. Employee #1 was hospitalized for his injuries.
