Investigation Summary
On September 11, 2003, Employee #1 and a coworker were replacing the flat, hot tar surface with flat rolls on the roof of a building undergoing renovations. There were five, 5 ft square domed skylights in the roof that were part of the original building. Each unit had a 6 in. long metal parapet at its base. Employee #1 apparently stepped back onto a metal parapet, tripped, and fell through one of the glass skylights. He fell approximately 15 ft, striking a vehicle in the building before landing on the concrete floor. Employee #1 was pronounced dead at the scene.
