Investigation Summary
At 11:45 a.m. on January 24, 2018, Employee #1, a carpenter employed by a construction company, was installing Simon concrete forms inside an excavation. The excavation measured approximately 11 feet long by 22 feet wide by 4 feet deep. An unstable spoil pile along the west side of the excavation collapsed onto Employee #1 and pinned him from waist to head. Other employees in the area uncovered Employee #1's face and dug him out. Emergency services were called, and Employee #1 was transported to the hospital. He was admitted and treated for a fractured left hand and abrasions.
