Investigation Summary
On December 4, 1992, Employee #1, a supervisor for B & P Industrial, Inc., was on an elevated work platform (pic) in Mentor, OH, sandblasting in a large water storage tank. The platform was without guardrails and Employee #1 was not using any other form of fall protection. A mechanical failure in a come-along that was keeping a guide wire taut allowed the pic to shift, throwing Employee #1 off. He fell approximately 100 ft and was killed.
