Abstract: At approximately 5:30 p.m. on September 30, 2010, Employee #1 and three coworkers were working on a flat roof to install flashing along a parapet wall, which was 37 feet above the ground. Employee #1 was a laborer and primarily worked on the ground of most job sites. However, on this day, Employee #1 was permitted to assist in the installation of the flashing. As Employee #1 was working, unassisted with no fall protection, on the north-west corner on the roof, he fell from the roof. Upon hearing the sound of Employee #1 striking the ground, his coworkers immediately came to his rescue, contacting emergency services. Employee #1 was taken to Stroger Hospital, where he later died from his injuries.
