Abstract: At approximately 9:15 a.m. on February 11, 2015, an employee and Coworkers #1 and #2 were transferring the roofing material to the roof top of a 3 story apartment complex taking product from a truck mounted conveyor belt and stacking the product on the roof top. Because the ladder they had with them was too short, 24 feet ladder, the employee and Coworker #1 used the trucks conveyor belt to gain access to the roof top. Once they were on the roof top Coworker #2, the truck driver was on the truck bed and placed the material onto the conveyor belt. After the employee and Coworker #1 on the roof completed placing the material on the roof they were getting ready to come down using the conveyor belt.
