Employee Fractures Both Wrists in Fall from Scaffold

On October 15, 2003, Employee #1 was working for a drywall contractor, installing drywall on a large new high school construction project. He was a journeyman hanger, working on a Perry scaffold. The work platform was fully planked and 5 feet, 10 inches above the ground. As Employee #1 measured the ceiling to determine the size of the next drywall sheet to be hung, he stepped off the end of the scaffold and fell to the concrete floor. He fractured both wrists and sustained a minor head laceration. He was hospitalized for four days.
