Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was in a 12 ft deep trench, installing 4 in. diameter plastic pipe for an underground telephone line. He had stepped out of the shored area and was bending over to sight the grade of the trench when a section of the bank gave way, striking him from behind. Employee #1 was buried and pinned by dirt and rocks. Coworkers immediately jumped into the trench and pulled him out. Employee #1 was conscious and breathing, but he sustained multiple injuries, including broken ribs, a broken pelvis, and a broken ankle.
