Investigation Summary
Employee #1, of Al Lowe Construction Co., was removing a piece of scrap plywood roofing material within an area that had been closed off as hazardous. When he stepped backward, he tripped over another piece of scrap and fell backward, hitting the roof and then rolling into the open area where the structural roofing had been removed. He then fell 20 ft to the concrete floor, but his fall was slowed by temporary bracing. Employee #1 suffered multiple bruises and contusions.
