Investigation Summary
Employee #1 discovered that the right side wire rope on a two-point suspension scaffold needed to be replaced. During his lunch break, he obtained a new, prerigged wire rope and was assigned to replace the kinked wire rope. The U bolts on the new wire rope were inverted. The two employees had just gotten on the scaffold and were tying off when the wire rope slipped through the inverted U bolts, causing the employees to fall 4.4 ft to the ground. Employee #1 sustained fractured legs and was hospitalized. Employee #2 died as a result of neck injuries.
