Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was hired to erect a scaffold. He was on the second level of a Saf-T-Green tubular welded frame scaffold, about 13 feet off the ground, moving the scaffold planks to the next working level. He had installed the cross brace on the side of the scaffold next to the building and adjusted the side arms of the outrigger section. The weather was very hot and humid. Employee #1 turned away from the building and wiped the perspiration from his forehead with his forearm. He then fell to the ground, apparently having passed out. A witness stated that he was limp when he fell. The autopsy report listed the cause of death as a broken back and a severed spinal cord.
