Abstract: At 12:00 p.m. on February 7, 2020, Employee #1 was standing on scaffolding using the hose from a concrete pump truck to fill concrete forms. An air pocket developed within the formwork that caused the concrete to exert pressure outward which caused the hose to strike Employee #1's face. Employee #1 fell backwards off the scaffolding to the ground 6 feet below. Employee #1 suffered fractures of both elbows, fracture of left cheek, fracture of left wrist, fractured neck, and lacerations to the face and lip and was hospitalized.
