Abstract: At 2:18 p.m. on June 19,2019, Employee #1, employed by a road construction company, was walking down a newly paved residential street to grab a shovel. He decided to move a piece of steel that was in the middle of the street. The employee bent over the 30-inch square steel that was covering a 24-inch manhole. He took a step forward and stepped into the hole opening, a 14 foot fall to the sewer at the bottom of the hole. He then climbed up the manhole ladder, and emergency services were called. The employee was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment of contusions to the arms and back.
