Investigation Summary
At 2:45 p.m. on May 30, 2019, Employee #1 and a coworker were engaged in steel erection for a two-story commercial building. Each of the two employees was working from a separate JLG Scissor Lift. The coworker was welding joists and Employee #1 was installing bridging. The coworker's welding lead, which was tied to the top rail of his scissor lift, became lodged in Employee #1's scissor lift. Employee #1 did not realize this had happened and began to descend his lift. The welding lead lodged in Employee #1 lift caused the lift to tip over, and Employee #1 fell. Employee #1 was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment of multiple injuries, including fractures to both ankles, his tibia, and a vertebra, and lacerations to the head and arm.
