Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was pushing a mobile scaffold across a concrete floor when the scaffold apparently overturned. It landed on its side, pinning him to the floor, and coworkers had to rotate the unit into an upside-down position to free him. Employee #1 was killed. The scaffold had been left in an upright position by another contractor. The erection of the scaffold may have been done in a way that contributed to the accident. In addition, six 2 by 12 boards had been left on top of the scaffold, which made the structure more unstable.
