Investigation Summary
On July 28, 2003, Employee #1 was transferring lines from a 275-gallon transmission oil storage tank for a conversion to another type of oil. The tank was on an 8-ft-high platform in a small boiler room. To access the tank, he placed a partially-opened 12-ft stepladder against the platform. While standing with one foot on the ladder and his other foot on the platform, he used a large pipe wench to tighten a connection. The wench slipped, causing him to lose his balance, strike a storage hook, strike a large air compressor, and then fall to the floor. After crawling out of the boiler room, he was able to obtain assistance, and was subsequently hospitalized for critical injuries.
