Investigation Summary
Employees #1 through #4 were hospitalized after they were exposed to high levels of carbon monoxide gas while cutting a hole in a cement floor with gas-powered equipment. Proper ventilation was not in use. The four employees, who had no job-related construction experience, were attempting to cut the hole to allow for the installation of a better drain system. Factors such as noise and dust were taken into consideration, but due to the lack of experience operating gas-powered equipment in an enclosed or restricted area, the possibility for exposure to carbon monoxide gas was not considered. This led to the lack of monitoring for hazardous gases and/or installation of proper ventilation.
