Investigation Summary
On April 11, 1995, Employee #1 and coworkers, working for a manufacturer of modular relocatable buildings, were covering a modular unit with plastic covering. After the sides were completed, employees secured a 13 ft rolling scaffold to access the roof of the unit. A 6 ft ladder was also brought and placed on the top deck of the rolling scaffold to reach the roof area. The rolling scaffold wheels were not locked to prevent movement. The scaffold and the ladder moved away from the building and Employee #1 fell with the ladder to the ground. He was taken to Norwalk Community Hospital, where he was hospitalized with a sprained back. Causal factors include improper use of a ladder atop a rolling scaffold and failure to secure the rolling scaffold wheels.
