Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:30 p.m. on December 20, 1993, Employees #1 and #2 and a coworker were painting the side of a building in San Francisco, CA. They were on a two point suspended scaffold that did not have guardrails; the ropes suspending the scaffold were old and had not been inspected; and the employees were not wearing safety belts. When the left scaffold rope broke and the scaffold collapsed, Employee #1 was killed and Employee #2 fell to a nearby roof and broke both arms. The coworker was left hanging onto the remaining scaffold rope.
