Employee injured when burned by hot liquid roofing material

At 2:30 p.m. on May 25, 2001, an injury accident occurred at a remote worksite in Studio City, California. Employee #1, a roofing company employee, was driving a truck towing a tank trailer containing hot liquid roofing material. He stopped to check the temperature of the liquid and make any needed adjustments to the heating system. As Employee #1 closed the hinged tank cover lid, the liquid 'flashed' or caught fire. Employee #1 was splashed by the burning liquid. Fire Department Paramedics responded and transported Employee #1 to Sherman Oaks Hospital where he was hospitalized with burns to the upper areas of his body.
