Investigation Summary
The American Demolition, Inc. supervisor had removed a 3/8 in. piece of plywood from the roof to check supporting members. When he replaced the plywood, he never nailed it down or fastened it in any manner. Employee #1 had just put some materials down when he turned around and walked into a corner of the loosened plywood. The corner gave way and broke under the employee, who fell 13 feet to a concrete floor. He suffered two broken wrists and a laceration to his upper right arm.
