Investigation Summary
Employees #1 through #3, including two weather proof mechanics and one materials handler, were working approximately 35 feet above the ground on a 12:12 pitched church roof. The employees were standing on 2 by 10 boards that were supported by adjustable roofing brackets, unloading a pallet of slate shingles, when one of the roofing brackets failed. The employees slid off the roof and hit the ground. Employee #1 landed on a chain link fence and suffered severe lacerations to his right hand. Employee #2 landed on a grassy area in an adjoining back yard; he broke both legs and fractured his back. Employee #3 landed on the concrete sidewalk at the base of an access ladder; he sustained head contusions and scrapes and bruises. None of the employees were wearing safety harnesses and lanyards.
