Employee Fractures Leg in Fall from Ladder

On April 5, 2006, Employee #1, a farm worker, was assisting another employee with the installation of wire over a long window in a wooden barn. Both employees were working from stepladders and facing each other. Employee #1 was about mid-way up an 8 ft stepladder, holding a small roll of wire in his hand. As he reached towards his coworker, he lost his balance and fell. He struck the ground, fracturing the upper part of his right leg. Employee #1 was transported to a medical center. At the hospital, he underwent surgical procedures to stabilize the leg fracture with a plate. Following the surgical procedures, he was hospitalized for five days and was then released.
