Abstract: At 1:15 p.m. on January 13, 2022, an employee was installing sheeting on top of a roof and sidewall of a building. An excavator working below the aerial lift struck the aerial lift boom with the excavator stick. This strike caused the boom of the aerial lift to bounce up and down and side to side. The boom movement ejected the aerial lift operator out of the basket. The aerial lift operator landed on the roof of the building, and then he slid down into a roof gutter. He was hospitalized to treat broken ribs and a ruptured spleen.
