Investigation Summary
On July 25, 2005, Employee #1 was located in the master bedroom or a newly constructed home, cleaning a window. The master bedroom was located on the second floor of the residence and the window that he was cleaning faced the rear of the house. This incident was reported that an employee fell from a second story window of a newly built single family home. While Employee #1 was cleaning the window, he dropped a cloth out of the window and instinctively grabbed for it. He lost his balance and fell out of the window, 17 feet to the ground below, landing on compacted soil. Employee #1 was taken to Suburban Hospital in Bethesda, MD, where he was hospitalized and treated for lacerations and contusions to his face, as well as a ruptured spleen, which had to be removed.
