Employee Suffers Burns When He Retrieves Item from Van

At approximately 9:30 a.m. on September 1, 2002, Employee #1 and a coworker, riding in a company-owned utility van, arrived at a building where Employee #1 was going to fire caulk around some pipe chases that had been installed a few days earlier. He got out of the van and opened the rear door of the utility van to get a 6-ft stepladder. While pulling out the ladder, Employee #1 heard a rush of air and felt a flash on his arms and face. He sustained second-degree burns to his face, hands, neck, and arms. Coworkers telephoned Ridgefield emergency medical services who transported Employee #1 to the Bridgeport Burn Center where he was hospitalized.
