Abstract: At 10:53 a.m. on February 15, 2020, an employee was working for a cable television and internet service provider. The company provided its service by way of cables and wires, not satellite. The employee was an electronic and cable service technician. He was working on an overhead telecommunications cable. He was climbing a Little Giant ultralight ladder. The ladder was hooked on a cable, but the secondary hook did not lock. The technician was pulling up a bucket of tools when the ladder shifted. The employee lost his balance and fell. He fell approximately 20 feet (6.1 meters) to a grass surface. He suffered a fractured L-1 Vertebra in his back and a shattered tailbone or coccyx. He was hospitalized.
