Investigation Summary
At 6:30 a.m. on May 24, 2019, Employee #1 and a coworker who was his supervisor, both employed by a roofing company, were installing a panelized roofing system for a new concrete tilt up commercial building. Employee #1 was positioned on the section of panelized roof being installed and using a portable welding unit to secure the panel structure to the building. His coworker was operating a rough terrain forklift that was lifting roof panels into place. The forklift struck the panel structure, causing it to vibrate and fall. Employee #1 fell, a fall height of 43 feet, and struck the concrete floor. He was killed in the fall. The subsequent investigation determined that Employee #1 had been wearing a fall protection harness and lanyard, but the lanyard had not been attached to an anchor point on the roof system.
