Investigation Summary
At 12:00 p.m. on July 8, 2015, an employee was preparing to move the mast-climber scaffold down to the ground. Witnesses reported they thought he stepped on a 1/2 inch piece of plywood that was covering the mast hole. They believe the plywood broke and he fell to the deck below. The witnesses did not see him fall through the plywood. The employee fell 90 feet, and was killed due to multiple traumatic impact injuries. The employee was not wearing any fall protection.
