Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was on the fifth floor of a parking building under reconstruction, preparing an opening for an embed, a technique used to anchor iron stairs to the decking. The falsework was composed of 4 by 8 sheets of plywood used for decking and 4 by 6 wooden joists and stringers used underneath the decking. Employee #1 had just made a 144 in. longitudinal cut when he apparently stood up, took one step backward, and fell off the leading edge of the floor deck. He died as a result of injuries sustained in the fall. Employee #1 was not wearing any form of fall protection, and there were no guardrails in place at the time of the accident.
