Investigation Summary
At 9:15 a.m. on August 5, 2004, Employee #1 was working by himself, up on the roof of the library building, which had existing conduit and pipes in addition to several skylights. Employee #1 was making forms for the HVAC units to sit them on. He was working within 6 ft of an existing skylight. Employee #1 accidently tripped on one of the pipes near the unprotected skylight. He fell and hit the 48-in. by 48-in. skylight. The skylight broke, and Employee #1 fell 11 ft 4 in. down onto the library floor. He fractured his left wrist and was hospitalized over 24-hours. The employer did not ensure that Employee #1 was protected from falling through the skylight by installing a guardrail system around the skylight or by having Employee #1 use a personal fall protection system. There were no direct witnesses to the incident.
