Investigation Summary
At 6:15 a.m. on May 21, 2019, Employee #1, employed by a plumbing contractor, was preparing a commercial site, the buildout of a restaurant, for the delivery of new material. In order to receive materials through the front door, which would require a larger opening, he removed the scaffolding's support cross bars. The scaffolding collapsed onto the employee. Employee #1 was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment of multiple injuries, including back injuries, lacerations to the right shoulder, loss of fluid in the right eye, and a detached retina.
