Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 14298616

Event: 09/27/1988

Employee injured in fall from scaffold

Employee #1 and a coworker were dismantling a 33 ft 6 in. high tubular welded frame scaffold. The scaffold planking consisted of two 2 in. by 10 in. scaffold boards on each end of the 5 ft wide scaffold, with a 7/16 in. by 4 ft by 8 ft wafer board laid across the two planks to form a walking surface. Employee #1 had removed one sheet of wafer board at the southeastern corner of the scaffold and was preparing to hand it to his coworker, who was standing on a balcony on the south side of the building. As Employee #1 handed over the wafer board, he stepped through the hole created when he removed it and fell to the sandy beach. He sustained a laceration over his right eye, and several bruises and abrasions. Neither the scaffold nor the balcony was equipped with a guardrail. Employee #1 had received no formal training, but had knowledge of the safety requirements for this job from previous inspections.
