Investigation Summary
At 8:10 a.m. on June 4, 2024, Employee #1, employed by a construction company, was preparing the work area for the day at a job site.

The employee sustained multiple contusions and fractures throughout the body. Emergency services were called, and the employee was transported to the hospital. Tragically, the injuries from the fall were fatal, and the employee died several days later from the impact of the fall.
