Investigation Summary
At 12:00 p.m. on November 21, 2024, an employee was working from the second tier of a two-tiered scaffold using a winch to lift and place concrete panels into a fence system. The employee moved the winch to the front left corner of the scaffold to place a panel on a taller fence section. The weight on the corner caused the scaffold to become unbalanced and topple over. The employee fell and struck his head on a concrete traffic divider, sustaining fatal head fractures.
