Investigation Summary
Employees #1 and #2 were repairing a slate roof and had placed 650 lb of slate onto a roof jack system. That material combined with their body weight (300 lb) caused the pump jack scaffold to give way. Employees #1 and #2 fell approximately 18 ft to the ground, sustaining injuries that required hospitalization. The system failed because it was not properly designed.
