Investigation Summary
At 4:40 p.m. on November 27, 2019, an employee was bolting/connecting steel joists from an aerial lift. The employee began to move backwards to the next location when he was caught between a steel joist and the aerial lift controls. A coworker lowered the aerial lift and the employee then fell forty feet as the lift descended and he was no longer pinned. The employee was killed by multiple blunt force trauma injuries.
