Investigation Summary
At 9:45 a.m. on July 5, 1999, Employee #1 was working from a 10 ft tall, three-point orchard ladder. He was on the eighth step when the bottom kicked out, and he fell approximately 8 ft to the ground, landing on his shoulders. The ladder had not been properly set for safe use and was laid against a tree instead of being opened up, as the manufacturer recommended.
