Investigation Summary
An employee was working as fruit picker for a farm labor contractor that was providing labor to harvest a farm owner's citrus crop. The worker was a regular full-time employee of the firm. He was provided with a 20-foot-long aluminum ladder so that he could pick lemons in trees that were 9 to 12 feet tall. The ladder contacted a 12-kilovolt overhead power line located about 18.5 feet above the ground, and the employee was electrocuted.
