Investigation Summary
On November 10, 2004, an employee was cutting a piece of plywood for a floor hole cover while leaning over the unguarded hole. The employee lost his balance, and fell headfirst, approximately 10 feet through the hole. He struck his head on the concrete slab of the basement floor. He sustained a concussion. The employee was flown to Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore. On November 15, he was transferred to the National Rehabilitation Center in Washington, DC. An accident investigation revealed that the employees were not trained in fall prevention and the hazards associated with elevated work areas.
