Investigation Summary
At approximately 5:50 p.m. on May 25, 1989, Employee #1 was finishing removing old tar paper from the flat roof of a two story building. The roof dimensions were 68 ft long by 22 ft wide with a 13 inch high parapet along the sides. There was a 3 ft high facade at the front of the roof and nothing in the back. Employee #1 was walking on a plastic cover that was nailed to the roof where the old tar paper had been removed to protect the roof from the rain that was falling. Employee #1 either slipped on the wet plastic and lost his balance or fell for some other reason over the roof edge to the gangway. He was killed. No fall protection for built-up roofing work was implemented.
