Investigation Summary
On December 11, 2006, Employee #1 and two coworkers were stretching a rubber membrane across a low slope roof and gluing it the surface. Employee # 1 was in the Southwest corner of the roof with his back to the edge pulling the rubber toward him. It is believed that a section of rubber folded over on itself and immediately set, and Employee #1 pulled on the rubber in an attempt to flatten the fold and lost his grip, or lost his footing, or both, and fell backwards off the roof. Employee #1 was able to hold onto the roof temporarily, while a coworker lunged for him. Employee #1 lost his grip before the coworker could reach him. Employee #1 fell approximately 21 ft. Employee #1 was hospitalized and treated for serious head injures, but was removed from life support two days later.
