Abstract: On May 14, 1996, Employee #1 asked three coworkers to bring him back a sandwich when they left a job site to get some lunch. Upon returning, the coworkers found Employee #1 lying face down approximately 7 ft from the base of a metal ladder that was extended approximately 32 ft to the roof. He did not respond when addressed and there was no discernible pulse or respiratory activity. A trickle of blood was coming from the employee's nose and he had minor elbow abrasions, but there was very little evidence of trauma consistent with having fallen from the ladder or the roof.
