Investigation Summary
On August 24, 2002, Employee #1, an ironworker, was on the roof of a one-story steel building, learning the process for installing skylights by observing two coworkers. They were pulling out nails from the sheet metal roof panels, which is a necessary step prior to installing the skylights. Employee #1 walked over an unnailed sheet of roofing material and it gave way. He fell 17 ft to the first floor and suffered a fractured left arm, a fractured left leg, and a fractured right ankle. He was hospitalized and treated for his injuries.
