Investigation Summary
Two employees were replacing the roof on a residential structure. They were raising an 11-meter Reimann & Georger Corporation platform hoist (Model No. PL250) alongside the structure to hoist roofing materials. The metal ladder section of the hoist contacted a 7200-volt overhead power line located approximately 9.9 meters above the ground. Both employees received electric shocks. One employee was pronounced dead of electrocution on arrival at a hospital. The other employee was hospitalized with burns to his hands, chest, and feet.
