THE PLATFORM WAS 7 FEET LONG, 4 FEET WIDE AND 1/4 INCH THICK. THE EMPLOYEES WERE FINISHING THE CEMENT SURFACE ON A BALCONY. THE BALCONY WAS 7 FEET, 9 INCHES WIDE BY 8 INCHES THICK. EMPLOYEE #1, WHO HAD BRIEFLY STEPPED ONTO THE BALCONY, RETURNED TO THE PLATFORM AT THE SAME END AS EMPLOYEE #2. THIS CAUSED THE PLATFORM TO FALL FROM THE FORKS.
