Abstract: At 11:00 a.m. on May 17, 2018, an employee was working to install rain gutters on a single family home. The employee was directed by the employer to come down off of the roof to assist in rain gutter fabrication. The employee crossed the 3:12 pitch roof covered with tile to access a twenty-two foot ladder and descend from the roof. While walking, a tile under his foot broke and gave way and the employee fell twenty feet off of the roof. The employee received unspecified injuries to his right leg and both hands and was taken to a local hospital for treatment.
