Employee receives injuries from trench cave-in

On March 26, 2004, Employee #1 was digging a footer for the under pinning operation within a trench. The trench dimensions were 5.33-ft in length by 2.25-ft in height by 1.67-ft in depth, and was located between two existing block columns. As he worked from a crouched position within the excavation, a side of trench collapsed covering him with dirt. The weight of the collapsed trench fractured his back. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center for treatment and hospitalized for postoperative care.
