Investigation Summary
Approximately 5:00 p.m. on October 17, 2007, Employee #1, a laborer for a masonry subcontractor, was moving mortar from the platform of a forklift to supply masons as they bricked a 2-story residence. The masons were on a tubular welded-frame scaffold and had bricked one-third of a chimney on a pitched roof. Employee #1 stepped out of the cage of the forklift onto the scaffold to bring the masons additional bricks. When he did this, the scaffold became overloaded and collapsed. Employee #1 fell 18 ft onto broken bricks, mortar, tools and scaffold lumber. Emergency Services was called and, after cutting his harness off his body, transported him to the Carolinas Medical Center; after approximately 24 hours, he was reported to be in stable condition. The cause of the accident was Employee #1 unhooking his personal fall arrest from the cage attached to the forklift, to supply the masons with additional bricks.
