Investigation Summary
Employee #1 and a coworker went to the fifth-floor level of a building to retrieve a cart. Once located, they began to negotiate a 70 in. wide walkway created by an interior wall and an open-sided floor. The workers began to push and pull the cart to move it away from the interior wall. Employee #1 had his back to the open-sided floor and toppled over the edge, falling 27 ft 8 in. onto concrete. He sustained a crushed left hip, a broken right foot, a broken nose, and a laceration above his left eye.
