Abstract: At 9:00 a.m. on November 24, 2020, Employee #1 and coworkers, employed by a scaffold company, were dismantling a five-level stair tower scaffold at the construction site for a new commercial building. They were on the scaffold's fifth level, where guardrails had been removed as part of the dismantling process. Employee #1 fell, a fall height of 54 feet. Emergency services transported the employee to the hospital, where he was declared dead. The subsequent investigation determined that the employer had a 100% tie-off policy for employees working at 6 feet or higher. Employee #1 had been wearing a full body harness and double self-retracting lanyards attached to the harness. Employee #1, for unknown reason, had apparently removed his lanyards from an anchor point and thus was unprotected when he fell.
