Employee Collapses, Later Dies

On August 3, 2007, Employee #1, working at an aluminum casting company, collapsed and later died. Given a period of extreme heat in the region (multiple 100+ degree days), an inspection was conducted to determine if heat stress was the cause of death. Following the evaluation of the workplace, it seems unlikely that heat was a significant factor in Employee #1's collapse and death.
