Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:00 a.m. on March 23, 2009, Employees #1 and #2, and 10 coworkers were manually lifting a framed balloon wall that another crew had just finished building. As the crew raised the wall to shoulder height, they realized that the wall was too heavy. One by one each ran from beneath the wall. The extra weight added by several employees leaving, caused Employees #1 and #2 to become caught beneath the wall edge. Both Employees #1 and #2 were taken to a nearby hospital, where they were hospitalized and treated for their injuries. Employee #1 suffered a cracked vertebra, while Employee #2 received treatment for a torn right rotator cuff. The accident investigation revealed that none of the crew that participated in the manual lift of the framed wall had received any training as outlined in the OSHA Safety and Health Information Bulletin (SHIB), Hazards of Manually Lifting Balloon Framed Walls, November 17, 2005.
