Investigation Summary
On March 5, 2007, Employee #1 and a coworker were working for a janitorial service, cleaning carpets at a customer's residence. Employee #1 was experiencing shortness of breath, so he went to the company van outside the residence to wait while his coworker locked the residence. The coworker found Employee #1 approximately five minutes later, slumped over and unresponsive in the passenger seat of the van. The coworker called emergency medical services, and Employee #1 was transported to Swedish American Hospital in Rockford, Illinois, where he died shortly after arrival. On April 17, 2007, the Winnebago County deputy coroner received a final autopsy pathology report that stated that the cause of death was "blunt trauma of the chest." A workplace injury to the employee was not reported, documented or otherwise substantiated during the inspection. The death was considered reportable but not recordable. It was not work-related.
