Abstract: At 10:20 a.m. on January 18, 2017, Employee #1 was assigned to stop by a two-story office building to visually assess the roof gutters. The employee was to determine if the gutters needed clearing from the recent heavy rains. Employee #1 used a 17-rung fixed ladder to access the roof from the electrical room and inspect the drains for leaves. As the employee was climbing down the fixed ladder, he slipped and fell eight feet onto a concrete surface. The employee sustained a fracture to his L-1 vertebra.
