Employee later dies after fall from stepladder

Employees were extending a door opener chain after a door installation had been completed. A coworker was adding the chain extension working from the top cap of a Bauer Corp. 10 ft fiberglass stepladder. Employee #1 was next to him on the second step from the top cap, at the 8 ft level, holding and handing chain to the coworker. When the chain slipped from the coworker's hand, the unexpected added weight caused Employee #1 to lose his balance and fall headfirst from the 8 ft level onto the concrete floor. Employee #1 died three days later from head injuries.
