Investigation Summary
On April 24, 2009, Employee #1, a roofer, was carrying two five-gallon buckets of hot rubber sealant which was being used to coat the second floor. Employee # 1 reached the second floor and proceeded to walk on freshly applied rubber sealant. Both of his feet stuck to the surface and he lost his balance. The hot rubber sealant that he was carrying splashed from the buckets onto his body, resulting in serious burns to his head and upper torso. His employer called for emergency medical assistance immediately, and Employee # 1 was transported by ambulance to a nearby medical center for treatment. He was then transferred to the St. Francis Memorial Hospital Burn Center, where he was hospitalized and received further treatment for his injuries.
