Abstract: At 2:48 p.m. on April 1, 2004, Employee #2 and Employee #3 observed Employee #1 climbing up the storage racks to the top of the top level, almost 15 feet above the floor. Employee #1 positioned himself on the metal grate that was placed on top of the storage rack frame. Employee #1 was going to move the suspended fluorescent light out of the way so that Employee #2 could place a pallet on the rack. Employee #1 said he moved his feet slightly and the metal grate tilted, causing Employee #1 to fall through the rack and hit the horizontal brace of the next rack. Employee #1 then hit the concrete floor on his left side. Employee #1 was transported to St Francis Hospital in Lynwood, California, where he remained for three days due to multiple fractures of his left forearm, which required that pins be inserted.
