Event: 12/22/1998

Employee's pelvis fractured in fall from roof

At approximately 9:00 a.m. on December 22, 1998, Employee #1 was working from the cap of some false work at a height of 21 ft 2 in. After hooking up a 12 in. by 12 in. by 15 ft long wood stringer, he signaled to the crane operator to hoist it up so that it could be placed on the cap at the desired position. As Employee #1 turned, the stringer hit him on his right leg. He tried to hold onto the end of the stringer, but after a few seconds he fell to the ground. Employee #1 sustained a fractured pelvis, right ankle, and right wrist. Employee #1 was wearing a body harness, but he was not tied to a lanyard or safety line.
