Investigation Summary
At 8:45 a.m. on March 26, 2021, an employee completed painting an area and was moved while standing on the mobile frame scaffold to a new section to continue painting. While being moved to the new area, the scaffold wheels became caught on a transition strip on the floor, which caused the scaffold to stop suddenly. The employee lost balance, fell approximately twenty feet, and was killed by blunt force trauma to the head.
