Investigation Summary
At approximately 4:00 p.m. on July 5, 2007, Employee #1, the safety manager on a two-story house undergoing renovation, was watching a coworker finish the floor edging around the stairwell. The second-level subfloor had just been put down and the next step was to install a guardrail system around the 10-foot by 6-foot floor opening, in preparation for the owner to build the stair system. According to an eyewitness, Employee #1 knelt down behind the coworker, leaned on part of the floor, and then fell approximately 9 feet through the opening from the second floor to the first floor. He was killed. Preliminary autopsy results indicated that Employee #1 died from a closed head injury and fractured neck, and not from a massive heart attack or stroke.
