Employee falls from ladder and sustains a separated shoulder

At 2:30 p.m. on March 21, 2017, Employee #1, a maintenance worker, was using a fiberglass extension ladder to perform service on a baler machine. The employee placed the ladder against the side of the baler machine and began working at a height of approximately five to eight feet above the ground.

An ambulance was called and Employee #1 was taken to the hospital where he was treated for a separated right shoulder.
