Investigation Summary
At 1:20 p.m. on December 4, 2018, Employee #1 was engaged in exterior rehabilitation work at a multifamily residential building. With rain expected and roofing work not completed, he was tasked to check the plastic sheeting on the roof. The employee accessed the roof with a 24-foot extension ladder and then climbed to the roof's peak, which had a pitch of 30 degrees (7/12). He straddled the peak and was preparing to secure the plastic with a staple gun when he fell, first landing on his feet and then falling to the pavement, a fall height of 26 feet. Emergency services transported the employee to the hospital, where he was treated in the emergency department for a fractured left cheek bone, a laceration to the left side of his face, and a broken tooth. The employee was released without hospitalization. The subsequent investigation established that the employee had not been trained in fall protection and was not wearing his fall harness.
