Investigation Summary
EMPLOYEES #1 AND #2 WERE PARTICIPATING IN THE JACKING PROCESS OF A MORGAN SCAFFOLDING SYSTEM WHEN A JACKING CABLE BROKE. THIS CAUSED A PORTION OF THE SCAFFOLD'S WOODEN PLATFORM TO DROP. A SAFETY LATCH INTENDED TO PREVENT MORE THAN A 2-FOOT FALL OFF THE PLATFORM DID NOT OPERATE. AS A RESULT, THE PLATFORM COLLAPSED TO THE GROUND, APPROXIMATELY 18 FEET BELOW. BOTH EMPLOYEES WERE INJURED IN THE FALL.
