Employee is injured in fall from ladder

At 12:15 p.m. on March 6, 2018, Employee #1, a maintenance worker, was dispatched to fix a fallen flagpole. Upon arrival, the employee found that the flagpole was broken at its bracket. It had been blown off the side of the building and landed on the roof. Employee #1 used an extension ladder to retrieve the flagpole and began to reinstall it, when the ladder he was standing on kicked out from under him. Employee #1 fell approximately 10 feet to the ground where his body struck a concrete flower pot. Employee #1 sustained fractures to his hip, arm, wrist, and shoulder, which he was hospitalized and received treatment. The incident investigation identified that the ladder was not set on a level and stable surface.
