Abstract: On April 10, 2018, during a safety inspection on fall hazards in construction, Employee #1 and a coworker, employed by a painting company, were working at a multiemployer construction project, a five-story commercial building. Employee #1 was working from the top tier of a mobile scaffold and applying paint to the upper walls and ceiling of the fourth floor. His coworker assisted by pushing the scaffold to a new location. While it was being pushed, a front scaffold wheel failed to move, and the scaffold tipped over. Employee #1 fell, a fall height of approximately 6 feet. He injured his right shoulder and sustained lacerations to his head.
