Investigation Summary
On January 14, 2011, Employee #1, a service technician with Time Warner Cable, was at a single-family home with above-ground utilities troubleshooting a line problem. He had set up a 32 ft fiberglass ladder with its hooks laid over an overhead cable line. The hooks were not secured because they were laid over a connector box which was wider than the hooks. After Employee #1 climbed the ladder, it fell and he landed on the hood of a pickup truck. Employee #1 was hospitalized at Sharp Memorial hospital for fractured vertebrae.
