Employee injured in 15 ft fall from beam

Employee #1 was working on the demolition of a section of a large factory. He was standing on a 6 in. wide beam that was 15 ft off the ground, using a wrecking bar or pick to recover 2 in. by 12 in. joists. The decking was still in place on one side of the beam, but on the side where the joists were being removed, there was a drop. Employee #1 was prying joists loose when one suddenly fell out. The wrecking bar or pick was snagged by the falling joist; Employee #1 failed to let go of the tool and was pulled down along with the joist. He suffered a compound fracture of his right wrist and a laceration on the right side of his head. The beam had no handrail, not was Employee #1 wearing a safety belt and lanyard.
