Investigation Summary
At around 2:15 p.m. on July 28, 2003, Employee #1 was on the top (fourth) section of a metal scaffold, kneeling on a scaffold plank, applying stucco. As he stood, he grabbed the top rail, which was not secured. When the rail failed, he fell about 26 ft to the ground. Employee #1 was hospitalized for multiple neck fractures. He claimed the employer allowed the top rail to be unsecured to allow stucco materials to be delivered by pulley to various levels of the scaffold.
