Investigation Summary
On May 23, 2006, Employee #1 and three coworkers were removing transite roofing panels from a roof that was approximately 20 foot high, measured to the ridge. There were glass-reinforced plastic (fiberglass) skylights in the roof panels. Employee #1 was wearing a full body harness, but his lanyard was snapped back to the harness and was not attached to the horizontal lifeline that was provided. Employee #1 was cutting bolts that held the transite roof panels in place. When he finished, he turned and stepped on a skylight. It gave way, and he fell approximately 18 feet to the concrete floor on the inside of the building. He sustained a fracture to his head, and he was killed.
