Investigation Summary
On July 31, 2006, Employee #1, a salesman, was conducting some construction work at a home that was being built. He was working alone, possibly installing baffles at the ceiling and roof area. Apparently, Employee #1 used a 24-ft long fiberglass extension ladder to reach the working area, which was about 21 ft above the floor. He placed this ladder on a Perry mobile scaffold, which was approximately 6.5 ft high. The ladder slipped from the scaffold, and Employee #1 fell with the ladder to the concrete floor. He sustained multiple fractures, lacerations and contusions, and died at the scene from multiple blunt force trauma. Employee #1 was found by workers of another contractor. No one actually observed the accident.
