Employee #1 was directed to finish up the walls of the bonus room with some three-quarter inch plywood. At approximately 9:45 a.m., Employee #1 went to a coworker to discuss their next task together. Employee #1 was told to wait in the stairwell as the coworker took measurements and marked a wood plank, in preparation for cutting stringers for stairs that would lead to the platform of a new stairway. Before any cutting of the wood plank was made, a noise was heard. Employee #1 had climbed an "A" frame ladder that was closed and leaning against a basement wall. Employee #1 fell from the ladder, and later died from his injuries.
