Investigation Summary
At 6:00 a.m. on July 20, 2017, Employee #1 and Coworker #1, part of a larger group of workers employed by a staffing agency, were working at a multiemployer job site, a retail store. They were assigned to replace overhead fluorescent light fixtures with LED fixtures. They were provided 10-foot fiberglass stepladders, safety glasses, and non-electrically rated cut-resistant gloves, and were instructed to work the 277-volt lighting system while it remained energized. While climbing the ladder, Employee #1 contacted an exposed wire with the top of his head and was shocked. He fell from the ladder, a fall height of 5 to 6 feet. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was admitted and treated for a fractured right leg.
