Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 200630325

Event: 11/18/1998

Employee killed in fall from fixed vertical ladder

Employee #1 was repairing the heating unit on the roof of a grocery store. He used a 16-rung metal ladder fixed to the side of the building to access the 17 ft. 6 in. roof. As he was climbing, he fell straight back off the ladder, striking his head on the pavement as he landed. CPR was started immediately and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital, where he later died. The ladder had round, 3/4 in. diameter by 18 in. long rungs, each 11 1/4 in. apart, that were 7 1/2 in. from the wall. The metal side rails were 2 1/2 in. wide by 3/8 in. thick, and extended sufficiently beyond the surface of the roof. It was not known from what height Employee #1 fell, or whether he was ascending or descending the ladder.
