Investigation Summary
At 10:30 a.m. on August 30, 2019, Employee #1 and a coworker were painting the exterior of a commercial building. They were working on the first floor roof painting the trim along the second floor roofline. They had accessed the roof using a portable extension ladder that extended approximately 36 inches above the roof surface, but was not tied off or secured near the top of the ladder. Employee #1attempted to descend the ladder while carrying a 1 gallon paint can in one hand. After he descended approximately four rungs, the ladder shifted, causing him to lose his balance and fall approximately 15 feet to a concrete driveway. Employee #1 was hospitalized to treat fractures to his pelvis, right arm, leg, and foot.
