Abstract: At 5:00 a.m. on August 17, 2019, an employee prepared a concrete floor for finishing. At the same time, a coworker operated a Skytrac to lift the finishing machine to an upper floor. The employee attempted to assist by pushing down on a safety cable to provide enough room for the equipment. As the employee held the cable down, an upright failed and the employee fell approximately thirty feet. The employee was hospitalized to treat a fractured pelvis and a liver injury.
