Investigation Summary
At approximately 10:30 a.m. on January 7, 2000, Employee #1, a steamfitter for Bacon Plumbing Company, Inc., was ventilating the plumbing system on the seventh floor of a building and inspecting for any leaks. He was using a stepladder to access the false ceiling where the pipes and valves were installed. As he was working, he unknowingly engaged a valve handle and hot water was discharged. It ran down his back, resulting in second-degree burns. He turned off the valve before climbing down the stepladder. Employee #1 was transported to St. Francis Hospital for treatment.
