Investigation Summary
At approximately 12:00 noon on January 10, 2008, Employee #1 and a coworker, of C.B.E Roofing Company, were repairing roof leaks at a single-family home in Whittier, CA. They climbed an extension ladder to the roof, and completed some roof cleaning and repair work. After the repairs, Employee #1 was descending the ladder when it slipped out. He fell approximately 8 ft 4 in. with the ladder, and suffered a head injury. The company owner initially drove him home. His wife took him to the hospital the next day, where he was found to have a cerebral blood clot that required brain surgery. The ladder in use was not tied or otherwise secured to prevent it from slipping.
