Abstract: A driving range attendant was changing fluorescent light bulbs in ceiling fixtures at a two-story driving range. He was working from a 2.4-meter stepladder, and the fixtures were 3.2 meters above the floor. Wire screen cages protected the 2.4-meter-long bulbs. As he was inserting a new light bulb into a fixture, he received an electric shock when his finger contacted the connecting pins on the end of the light bulb. The electric shock caused him to fall back off the ladder. He landed on top of a protective wall between driving range stations. Emergency medical services administered first aid, before they transported the injured employee to a hospital, where he was treated for fractured ribs.
