Investigation Summary
At 1:00 p.m. on September 14, 2016, employees erected a scaffold to install soffit and fascia. The scaffold collapsed when both employees stood on one end. The wood scaffold was constructed at 20 feet above grade. It was not designed or constructed by a qualified person. Among other things, it was not properly supported and the employees were not using any sort of fall protection. One employee died as a result of the fall and it is believed that he landed on his head and he died on his way to the hospital. The other employee broke his tail bone and hip when he landed.
