Abstract: At approximately 11:00 a.m. on September 28, 1998, Employee #1 was using a 6-ft fiberglass step ladder. The ladder was placed on a 5-in. sloped tile roof to gain access to another roof that was approximately 5 ft above. Employee #1 went up the ladder some painting equipment and then went over to the chimney and did some touch-up painting. He left the painting equipment by the chimney and started to come down the ladder. As he did this, the ladder slipped causing him and the ladder to fall on to the sloped tile roof and slide about 10 to 15 ft off the edge of the roof. This was a 10 ft fall to a concrete pad. He received a broken left elbow and was in the hospital for three days.
