Investigation Summary
On August 16, 2001, Employee #1, an engineer, had climbed on top of a portable trailer to observe a filter change in the exhaust system of the oven that was contained in the trailer. The back door of the trailer was open and upright. Employee #1 mistakenly stepped on it. This door is not supported by anything other than small hydraulic rams, like those used on a car hood, and are not made to support a person's weight. Employee #1 fell to the ground approximately 6 ft and suffered a compression fracture of the T-11 vertebrae. He was hospitalized.
