Abstract: At 12:00 a.m. on July 31, 2020, Employees #1 and #2 were performing roofing work using a ladder jack scaffold supported by two extension ladders. While Employee #1 was on the scaffold platform preparing to connect to a vertical lifeline, one of the supporting ladders broke, leading to the collapse of the scaffold on one side. Employee #1 slid down the platform and fell to the ground, while Employee #2 was knocked off the access ladder he was climbing. Both employees sustained broken bones, bruises, lacerations, and internal bleeding, resulting in hospitalization.
