Abstract: At 10:00 a.m. on August 17, 2017, Employee #1 and Coworkers #1 and #2, employed by a construction company, were at a commercial building and prepping an exterior masonry wall for painting. They were standing on a make-shift elevated platform and using hand and power tools. As they moved about the platform, the platform unexpectedly shifted, causing the three workers to fall onto one another. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was admitted and treated for fractures of the wrist and ankle.
