Investigation Summary
On January 4, 2001, Employee #1 reported to the construction site to repair a scissors lift. When he arrived at the site, there were no workers there. He proceeded to the third floor where he was instructed by the dispatcher to get off of the elevator. The lift was not on the third floor, so Employee #1 proceeded to climb the escalator to the fourth floor where the lift was located. Employee #1 stepped into an open floor hole that was covered with a plastic dust barrier where the other escalator had been removed. Employee #1 fell through the hole and was killed.
