Investigation Summary
On June 20, 2001, Employee #1 and another employee (his supervisor) were working on the roof of a house. Employee #1 had just finished laying down the roofing felt paper and was assisting the other employee by bringing a bucket of hot tar to the employee for hot mopping. Employee #1 was walking on the roof carrying a bucket of hot tar when the roof's wood sheathing broke as he stepped on it. The broken wood sheathing was approximately 1-in. by 6-in. Employee #1 lost his balance when his foot broke through the roof sheathing, causing the bucket of hot tar to fall and spill on to him. Employee #1 was hospitalized with serious burns to the right arm, right hand, and left hand, as well as burns on his face and abdomen. Employee #1 did not have appropriate protective clothing for the roofing operation. The employee was wearing a leather work glove that covered up to the wrist of his right hand and he was wearing a short sleeve shirt. Employee #1 was not wearing an apron or any other protective clothing.
