Investigation Summary
Employee #1 had been laying roofing material on a long narrow section of roof. He had laid the roofing material to within 9 1/2 ft of the end of the roof and apparently did not realize how close to the edge he was working. Employee #1 fell 23 ft and was impaled on a metal pipe fencepost and killed. Employee #1 was not using any fall protection. There were no warning lines or monitor installed. His foreman was working on a different roof section with his back to Employee #1.
